Another view is that of Drouin who regards them as coins of the Yueh-ti (Kuṣaṇas) themselves, and explains the occurence of Sassanian names and head-dresses, by supposing that both were borrowed by these Yueh-ti as a consequence of their long friendly alliance with the Sassanian monarchy. According to this view, therefore, these coins are of the Later Great Kuṣaṇas; and are distinguished from those treated of in § 74 only as being the issue of a different district comprising a portion of the extreme north of India and also Arachosia and Bactriana on the other side of the Paropanisus.
