| Reverse description | A camel standing to the right in the central field, depicted in profile with characteristic humped form and raised foreleg, rendered in robust relief. A Kharosthi legend appears in the exergue below a ground line. The Greek royal legend surrounds the field along the periphery. The reverse composition reflects the Kushan monarchs' use of both Greek titulature and indigenous imagery to assert dynastic authority across a multilingual empire. |
