| Beschrijving voorzijde | Lion walking right in profile, depicted in a schematic, archaic style typical of early Indian tribal coinage. The animal's body is rendered with minimal but recognizable detail, occupying the central field of the flan. The surfaces show characteristic roughness associated with cast bronze production of the period. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | Tree-in-railing motif at center, a common religious and dynastic symbol on ancient Indian punch-marked and cast coinage of the period, rendered schematically within the field. A Brahmi legend accompanies the design, identifying the issuing tribal authority. The overall execution is consistent with the crude but culturally significant style of northwestern Indian tribal issues of the 1st century BC. |

The Agacha were among the semi-autonomous tribal coinages operating in the broader Indo-Greek frontier zones, issuing small bronzes that circulated alongside the more prolific output of their Hellenistic neighbors. MIG 973 places this type within Mitchiner's exhaustive cataloguing of Indo-Greek and related series, though attribution to specific tribal republics in this region remains contested among specialists. The century-long date range reflects genuine uncertainty rather than prolonged production.
