Reverse description Standing figure of Athena Alkidemos facing left, advancing in a martial posture with arm outstretched and brandishing a thunderbolt, her aegis draped over her extended forearm. A small Nike figure or similar divine symbol appears in the upper field. Scattered symbols, including a star, are visible in the field around the central device, consistent with Indo-Greek reverse types of this period. A Kharosthi legend encircles the design, providing the Prakrit equivalent of the king's name and titles. The relief is moderate, typical of hammered Indo-Greek silver coinage.
