  Sophytes Information
Sophytes seems to have been a Greek prince that ruled a kingdom in what is now Punjab (Pakistan), formerly part of India.
Though the history of the region appears to agree with this 11 year reign, the apparent age difference of Sophytes himself as he is portrayed on his coins, has suggested a number of different possible regnal extents.
Among the prevailing theories, are that the change in age is representative of Sophytes' actual aging process, or that the "young" issues were actually stylized.

 Sophytes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sophytes is a figure whose origin is subject to much debate.
Cunningham identifies him with the Indian King Fobnath of "Sangala," (a name some read as "Saka-town") while A.C.L. Carlleyle connects him with the same king's son Suveg, which is more likely in light of the indentification of Fobnath as a royal title rather than a name; potentially making him a Madra of Saka/Iranian origin.
There is also an Indian king "Sophytes", described as ruling along the Indus during the campaigns of Alexander the Great, in the Bibliotheca of Diodorus Siculus.

Many of them are only known through their coins.
Not strictly an Indo-Greek king, Sophytes (305-294) was an independent Greek prince in the Punjab, following the conquests of Alexander the Great.
Many of the dates, territories, and relationships between Indo-Greek kings are tentative and essentially based on numismatic analysis (find places, overstrikes, monograms, metallurgy, styles), a few Classical writings, and Indian writings and epigraphic evidence.

This particular coin was reportedly unearthed in the region of ancient Baktria; a transfer from the West cannot be ruled out, although no similar coins can be found there either.
Stylistically, the eagle is consistent with the Sophytes coinage, as is general fabric of the flan.
The appearance of Kybele/Tyche on a Baktrian coin of this period may be explained by the existence of numerous cities founded during Alexander the Great's eastern campaigns.
