背面描述	Standing frontal figure of the Iranian deity Ardochsho (Ard, goddess of fortune and prosperity), nude to the waist and wearing a long skirt, with both arms slightly raised and holding attributes. To the left of the deity appears the Kushan dynastic tamgha symbol, and to the right a further inscriptional element. The goddess is rendered in the syncretic Kushan artistic style blending Hellenistic, Iranian, and Indian iconographic traditions. A dotted border frames the reverse field, with the deity's name rendered in Bactrian Greek script in the field.

附加信息	Huvishka's long reign — among the lengthiest in Kushan history — produced an extraordinary proliferation of divine types, with over two dozen deities appearing across his coinage. Göbl 880 falls within a series that reflects the empire's religious eclecticism: Zoroastrian, Hindu, and Buddhist iconography circulated simultaneously on coins from the same mint, an arrangement without parallel in contemporary coinage anywhere west of the Ganges. The bronze tetradrachm fabric itself was a Kushan adaptation, borrowing the denomination name from Hellenistic tradition while producing coins bearing no structural relationship to Greek weight standards.
