| 裏面の説明 | King Vima Takto depicted on horseback, advancing right, seated in a commanding posture and holding a scepter in the right hand. The royal tamgha is prominently placed in the right field. A Greek legend runs along the upper periphery of the coin. The equestrian composition follows established Kushan royal iconography, rendered within a beaded border on an irregularly struck flan. |

Vima Takto — sometimes rendered Vima Taktu — remains one of the more poorly documented Kushan rulers, his reign reconstructed largely from coinage rather than written sources. The Rabatak inscription, discovered in Afghanistan in 1993, helped fix his position in the dynastic sequence as father of Vima Kadphises, finally resolving a chronological debate that had occupied scholars for decades. Before that find, his place in the succession was genuinely contested.
Bronze tetradrachms of this type circulated across a Kushan-controlled territory stretching from Bactria into the northwestern subcontinent. The Mitchiner reference AC#2953 places this among the earlier struck bronzes of the dynasty — coinage that was as much an administrative tool as anything else, marking territorial control in newly consolidated regions.
