Beschrijving keerzijde	Hercules (Heracles) standing facing in the field, depicted nude and holding a club in one hand and a lion skin draped over the other arm, in direct continuation of the Hellenistic reverse type derived from Indo-Greek prototypes. A Kharosthi legend encircles the central figure, naming Kujula Kadphises in his royal titulature. The reverse die is hand-struck and displays the coarse, energetic style characteristic of early Kushan copper coinage, with the figure rendered in relatively high relief against a flat field.
