Hemi-Obol - Antialcidas

Antialcidas ruled from the eastern reaches of the Indo-Greek world, likely based at Taxila, and is notable for being the king whose ambassador Heliodorus erected the Heliodorus pillar at Vidisha — the earliest known inscription attesting to a Greek convert to Vaishnavism on the Indian subcontinent. The diplomatic and cultural entanglement that pillar represents gives his coinage an unusually rich context among Indo-Greek issues.

The Bopearachchi 15A classification places this among his later bronzes, struck as Indo-Greek territorial control was contracting under Scythian pressure from the northwest.
