| Aversbeschreibung | Frontal bust of the ruler Buddhamitra rendered in the late Kushano-Sasanian tradition, facing directly forward with large stylized eyes. The effigy wears an elaborate crown or headdress surmounted by a crescent and foliate elements, with voluminous hair or headgear flanking both sides of the face. A prominent beaded necklace adorns the neck and shoulders, and subsidiary attendant figures or symbolic objects appear at the left and right shoulders. The bust is enclosed within a beaded border, and the Brahmi legend reading 'Buddhamitra' (बुद्धमित्र) appears in the field. |

The Kidarites emerged from the broader collapse of Kushano-Sasanian authority in Bactria during the mid-fourth century, and their coinage reflects that transitional moment — deliberately imitating earlier Kushan types to assert dynastic continuity they hadn't quite earned through conquest. Buddhamitra is one of the few Kidarite rulers identifiable by name on coinage, which itself tells you something about how compressed and poorly documented this dynasty's internal succession was.
Göbl's Kushan corpus remains the foundational reference for attributing these issues, though subsequent scholarship has contested several of his sequence dates by decades in either direction.
