Which of the below mentioned IndoGreek rulers issued coins bearing the figures of Krishna and Balarama ?
Answer: B
Agathocles issued coins with figures of Krishna and Balarama.
The Indo-Greek king Agathocles struck coins with figures identified as Vasudeva-Krishna and Samkarshana-Balarama, which are among the earliest representations of those deities.
Menander, Heliocles and Archebius did not issue coins of this type according to the key. Agathocles ruled in the second century BCE, and his unusual coins with Vishnu-related deities show how the Greek rulers accepted Indian cults.
