Greco-Bactria. Tradionally attributed to Diodotus I. According to Jakobsson (”Antiochus Nicator, the Third King of Bactria?,” NC 2010, pp. 17-33), the “transitional” issues of Diodotos belong to a new King Antiochos in Bactria. There are two main reasons to this reattribution: the existence of a commemorative tetradrachm of Agathokles that names an Antiochos Nikator; a new ordering of the control marks and links between the coinage of Diodotos II, “Antiochos,” and Euthydemos.
In this new chronology, Diodotos I separated from the Seleukids and struck his own coinage immediately. He was then succeeded by Diodotos II, and then Antiochos Nikator. They all used the same dynastic type of Zeus Bremetes. (Référence: [1])
