| Beschrijving keerzijde | Zeus Nikephoros standing facing, nude but for drapery around the lower body, his right arm raised and holding a small Nike, his left hand resting on a long scepter. The deity stands on a short base or ground line at the center of the field. A Kharosthi legend runs around the periphery within a beaded border, giving the Prakrit equivalent of the royal titulature. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Archebios ruled a shrinking Baktrian territory in the late 2nd to early 1st century BC, one of the last Greek kings attempting to hold Hellenistic administration together as Indo-Scythian pressure from the northwest steadily dismembered what had once been a coherent kingdom. His coins are bilingual — Greek on one side, Kharoshthi on the other — a practical concession to the realities of governing a population that had little use for Attic script.
The Bop#5A classification places this among his earlier drachm issues. Dies for Archebios are known to show considerable wear progression within short series, suggesting concentrated mint runs rather than sustained production.
