背面描述 Two elephant bells (bell-shaped objects) displayed side by side within a dotted border, a distinctive and recurring type associated with Antialcidas coinage referencing his connections to the Indian subcontinent. The design is rendered in a bold, simplified style typical of small-denomination Indo-Greek bronzes. A Kharosthi legend encircles the central device, providing the bilingual parallel to the Greek obverse inscription. The overall fabric is irregular, consistent with hand-struck hammered coinage of the period.

附加信息

Antialcidas ruled from the eastern reaches of the Indo-Greek territory, likely based at Taxila, during a period when the kingdom was fracturing under pressure from Scythian incursions from the north and rival Greek dynasts pressing from the west. His coinage is notable for being among the first to adopt fully bilingual legends — Greek on one face, Kharosthi on the other — a practical concession to local administrative and commercial realities that became standard for successors.

Bronze fractions at this denomination were workhorses of local market exchange. Bopearachchi places him in the late second century BC with reasonable confidence; Mitchiner's attribution broadly agrees, though exact regnal dates remain contested among specialists.
