背面描述 A draped city-goddess, identified as Tyche, depicted in three-quarter view facing left, wearing a turreted crown symbolising her role as patron deity of a royal city. She cradles a cornucopia in her left arm, emblematic of abundance and prosperity, while her right arm is outstretched in a gesture of beneficence. The composition reflects the syncretic Hellenistic-Baktrian artistic tradition. The Greek royal legend is disposed around the figure in the field.

附加信息

Amyntas ruled one of the last Indo-Greek kingdoms at a moment when Baktrian power was fragmenting under sustained Saka pressure from the north and Parthian encroachment from the west. His double decadrachm — among the largest silver coins ever struck in the ancient world by weight — was almost certainly not a circulation piece. Issues at this module were prestige objects, likely distributed as gifts or used in elite transactions, which explains why surviving examples show negligible wear despite the political chaos surrounding their production.

The Bopearachchi sequence places this type early in Amyntas's reign, before his kingdom contracted to its final reduced territory in the Paropamisadae region.
