| Obverse description | Standing male figure in the field, rendered in Hellenistic style, facing front with arms slightly extended. The effigy, identified as the deified king or a divine figure, occupies the central field of the flan. The circular Greek legend BAΣIΛEΩΣ NIKHΦOPOY ANTIMAXOY runs along the periphery, partially visible on this worn example. The overall style reflects the hybrid Greco-Bactrian artistic tradition characteristic of Indo-Greek coinage of the second century BC. |
