| Reverse description | A deity shown standing in full figure facing front, wearing a tiara with flaming nimbus, rendered in the syncretic Kushan iconographic tradition blending Hellenistic, Indian, and Iranian divine imagery. The figure is richly dressed and holds divine attributes in each hand. A Bactrian legend in Kushan script appears to the left of the deity, identifying the divine figure. The field is enclosed by a beaded border, and the overall composition reflects the eclectic religious pluralism characteristic of Huvishka-era Kushan coinage. |
