| Reverse description | A standing male deity, identified as Zeus or Pallas Athena in some references but here appearing as a standing male figure in frontal or near-frontal pose, holding a long scepter or spear in one hand and a Nike or wreath in the other, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition. A monogram appears to the left of the standing figure in the field. The Kharoshthi legend Maharajasa Rajadirajasa Mahatasa Ayasa, the Prakrit equivalent of the Greek obverse title, encircles the design. A dotted border frames the composition. The flan shows irregular edges consistent with hand-struck production. |
