Greek. Bactrian Kingdom. Eucratides I the Great, Tetradrachm (circa 170-145 BC) (Silver, 16.99 gr, 33 mm). HGC 12-132, Bopearachchi 8b, Mitchiner 179a, SNG ANS 485.
One of the most iconic ancient portrait styles, with a portrait of undeniable power, rendered in Fine Style detail in high relief. Flashes of golden toning add further dimensionality to the muscular obverse portrait. The full beaded border present completes the desirability of this magnificent example.
Eukratides I, a usurper who seized power, utilized coin imagery to project his authority. The reverse of his coin depicts the Dioskouroi, symbolizing martial strength, with an inscription asserting his dominance as "the great King." On the obverse, Eukratides is portrayed as a heroic nude bust, armed and poised, wearing a bull-horned helmet linked to Seleucid heritage.
This numismatic artistry reflects the influence of Hellenistic culture, aligning Eukratides with Greek ideals of leadership and civilization. Such coins, crafted by skilled artists, reinforced the Greek identity of the Bactrian kings and their distinction from local rulers. Eukratides' portrait style influenced later eastern and Roman coinage, underscoring the enduring impact of Hellenistic cultural symbols.
