| 正面描述 | King Huviska seated atop an elephant moving to the right, depicted in regal posture with attributes of divine kingship; the elephant is rendered in profile with naturalistic detail typical of Kushan coinage. The royal figure raises his hand and holds regalia, surrounded by a Bactrian legend in the field. The inscription ÞAONANOÞAO OOHÞKE KOÞANO runs around the design, proclaiming the king's title as King of Kings. |

| 背面描述 | Mithra, the solar deity, depicted nimbate and standing facing, with head turned to the left; he raises his right hand in a gesture of salutation or benediction. The divine figure is rendered in the Kushan syncretic style, combining Hellenistic and Iranian iconographic elements. A tamgha, the dynastic emblem of the Kushan royal house, appears to the left of the figure. The Bactrian inscription MIIPO identifies the deity in the field. |

Huvishka's reign saw the Kushan monetary system bifurcate sharply: gold dinars continued for elite transactions and royal prestige, while copper tetradrachms like this one handled the everyday commercial weight of a trading empire stretching from the Ganges plain to the fringes of Parthia. The copper issues under Huvishka are notably diverse in their reverse types — more so than under any other Kushan ruler — likely reflecting deliberate accommodation of multiple regional religious constituencies across a vast and culturally heterogeneous realm.
SNG ANS 9 #454 places this piece within a catalogued sequence that has helped scholars map die relationships across the copper series, though the precise mint attributions within the Kushan system remain contested.
