| Reverse description | Standing male figure, identified as Zeus or Heracles, depicted facing or in three-quarter stance within the central field, rendered in a heavily worn Hellenistic style. The figure appears to hold an attribute, possibly a sceptre or spear, consistent with standard Indo-Greek reverse types for this reign. The Kharosthi legend encircles the design along the border, serving as the bilingual counterpart to the obverse Greek inscription. The flan is irregular and the strike is somewhat flat, with portions of the legend weak or partially off-flan, as is typical of hammered drachms of this late Indo-Greek period. |
