| 表面の説明 | Bust of Wima Takto (Soter Megas) in profile facing right, the king depicted holding a long spear or sceptre raised before the face. The effigy is rendered in the schematic style characteristic of early Kushan coinage, with pronounced facial features and minimal drapery detail. The field is largely plain, with the composition emphasizing the royal portrait in a bold, frontal-facing bust treatment conventional to the series. |

Wima Takto — also recorded as Vima Taktu — ruled as the predecessor to Wima Kadphises and is among the least-documented Kushan rulers, his reign reconstructed almost entirely from numismatic evidence rather than written sources. The epithet "Soter Megas," meaning Great Savior, appears borrowed from earlier Indo-Greek and Indo-Scythian royal titulature, suggesting deliberate legitimizing propaganda aimed at populations still culturally anchored to those predecessor dynasties.
The attribution of coinage to his specific reign was substantially clarified only in the late twentieth century, following Robert Senior's systematic die studies.
