| Beschrijving keerzijde | Zeus standing facing, nude but for a chlamys draped over his left arm, holding a long sceptre or thunderbolt in his right hand and a palm branch in his left. A small monogram appears in the lower central field below the deity's feet. The entire design is encircled by a Kharosthi legend reading 'Maharajasa Dhramikasa Heliyakreyasa' ('of the just great king Heliokles'), executed in the characteristic Indo-Greek bilingual tradition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Heliokles II ruled a shrinking kingdom — by his reign, Indo-Greek control had been fractured by successive Saka and Yuezhi incursions pushing down from the north, and his territory was largely confined to the Paropamisadae region. Whether he was the son of Eucratides II or belongs to a separate dynastic line remains genuinely unresolved among specialists. The coinage itself is the primary evidence for his existence at all.
