| Beschrijving voorzijde | Diademed bare head of Diodotos II facing right, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with carefully detailed curling hair bound by a royal diadem whose ends trail behind the neck. The portrait displays youthful idealized features with a strong jawline and well-modelled neck, consistent with the Seleucid artistic tradition inherited by the Baktrian court. The flan is slightly irregular, as is characteristic of hammered gold coinage of this period. No legend appears on the obverse. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Zeus Bremetes depicted in dynamic rear-facing stance, striding vigorously to the left; his outstretched left arm bears an aegis draped over it, while his raised right arm is poised to hurl a thunderbolt. In the inner left field, a laurel wreath appears above an eagle standing to the left with wings spread, serving as a royal and divine symbol of Baktrian sovereignty. The encircling Greek legend reads ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΔΙΟΔΟΤΟΥ, identifying the issuer as King Diodotos. The composition closely follows Seleucid prototypes established under Antiochos II, reflecting the dynastic legitimacy claimed by the Baktrian rulers. |
