GREEK COINS
INDIA

Kushan Empire. Dinar (Gold, 21mm, 7.90 g 12), Mint II (B). Nimbate, diademed, and crowned half-length bust of Huvishka to left, holding mace-scepter in his right hand and filleted spear in his left. Rev. Ardoxsho standing left, holding cornucopiae in both hands; tamgha to left. Donum Burns -. Cf. MK 357-9/365A (same obverse die and reverse type). A few minor marks, otherwise, very fine.

From the collection of a Swiss traveler, ex Triton XI, 8 January 2008, 380.
For this obverse die, Göbl incorrectly lists the legend 3b. This example clearly shows that the inscription is slightly corrupt.
