| Obverse description | Bust of the king facing right, depicted in the Indo-Scythian tradition with flowing hair and diadem, occupying the central field. A regnal date in Shaka Era numerals appears behind the head. The surrounding legend, rendered in debased and blundered Greek script, is largely illegible, reflecting the gradual degradation of the Greek epigraphic tradition among the later Western Satraps. The style is characteristic of the hammered coinage of the Western Satrap series, with a slightly irregular flan. |
