Obverse lettering BAΣIΛEΩΣ ΣΩTHPOΣ EPMAIOY
Reverse description Zeus seated three-quarters to the left on a throne, his left hand holding a long sceptre while his raised right hand extends in a gesture of benediction or blessing. The composition follows the standard Indo-Greek divine reverse type derived from Hellenistic prototypes. A Kharoshthi legend encircles the deity, providing the Indic parallel titulature of the king. The overall style reflects the syncretistic artistic vocabulary characteristic of late Indo-Greek coinage.
