INDIA, Kushans. Vasudeva II (III). Circa 270-310 AD. AV Stater (20mm, 7.85 gm, 12h). King standing left, wearing conical crown with nimbus, holding trident and sacrificing at altar, trident standard behind; monograms in field / Goddess Ardoksho enthroned facing. MK 591/596. Good VF.
The Kharosthi monogram under the king's arm seems to contain elements of both monograms of MK 591 and 596, but does not appear to be a re-engraved die.
