| Reverse description | The reverse presents a draped figure of Tyche standing to the left, rendered in Hellenistic style with fluid drapery falling to her feet. In her extended left hand she holds a cornucopia or lamp, while her right hand raises a long palm frond, symbolising victory and abundance. Kharosthi control marks and monograms appear in the field to either side of the figure. A bilingual Kharosthi legend encircles the type along the border, the Indic counterpart to the Greek obverse inscription, affirming the dual cultural identity of the coinage. |
