Beschrijving keerzijde A tripod cauldron depicted in frontal view, with three legs splaying outward from a bowl-shaped vessel, all contained within a plain rectangular border. The tripod is rendered in a schematic, linear style characteristic of Indo-Greek copper issues, with the legs and bowl clearly distinguished. This Hellenistic cultic symbol was commonly employed on the reverses of Indo-Greek regal coinage as an emblem of royal and religious authority.

Aanvullende informatie

Apollodotus II ruled in the eastern Punjab during a period when Indo-Greek authority was contracting sharply under pressure from Indo-Scythian incursions. His copper issues were workday coinage for local markets, and the chalkon denomination kept small transactions functioning in territories that were, politically, already slipping away. The Bopearachchi sequence places him among the last Indo-Greek kings to hold meaningful territory east of the Indus.
