| Reverse description | A lion standing in profile to the right, rendered in a stylised manner combining Hellenistic and Central Asian artistic conventions, placed on a ground line of pellets. A Kharoshthi letter appears above the animal in the upper field. The divine name NANAIA is inscribed in Greek legend on both sides of the central device, flanking the lion to the left and right, referencing the Iranian goddess Nanaia who was widely venerated across the region. |
