| Reverse description | Standing frontal figure of the Iranian solar deity Ardoxsho (Ard, goddess of fortune and abundance), rendered in a graceful three-quarter pose with a nimbus or halo encircling the head. The deity holds a diadem or fillet in the outstretched right hand and a cornucopia in the left, attributes consistent with her role as a goddess of royal fortune and prosperity. A Kushan tamgha symbol appears to the right in the field. The abbreviated legend APDoXPo (Ardoxsho) is inscribed in Bactrian Greek characters to the left of the figure. The reverse is bordered by a prominent inner ring of beads. |
