| Reverse description | Zeus Nikephoros standing facing left, presenting a small figure of Nike on his outstretched right hand and holding a scepter in his left; beside him stands a large elephant facing right, symbolizing the king's dominion over the Indian subcontinent. A small symbol, likely a monogram or mint mark, appears in the left field. The Kharosthi legend encircles the design within a beaded border, rendered in the Gandharan epigraphic tradition. |
