==Imitations by Indo-Scythian rulers==
[[File:Rajuvula coin Northern Satrap with Greek legend and Athena Alkidemos.jpg|thumb|Coin of [[Northern Satrap]] [[Rajuvula]] ({{Circa|10&nbsp;CE}}), an imitation of Strato II, [[Mathura, Uttar Pradesh|Mathura]] and Eastern [[Punjab]]. This was the main coin type of Rajuvula.]]
Subsequent Indo-Scythian rulers, who replaced the Stratos in their territories, designed their coins in direct imitation of those of Strato II. This is the case of the [[Northern Satraps]], who ruled in the territories from [[Sagala]] in Eastern [[Punjab]] to [[Mathura]], such as [[Rajuvula]], [[Bhadayasa]]. Just as the [[Yuezhi]] had copied the coins of the last [[Greco-Bactrian]] ruler [[Heliocles]] in [[Bactria]], or the [[Indo-Scythians]] had copied the coins of the last western [[Indo-Greek]] ruler [[Hermaios]] in the area of [[Kabul]], here again the [[Indo-Scythian]] Northern Satraps relied heavily on the numismatics of their predecessors.<ref name="Rosenfield"/> The fact that powerful new rulers such as Rajuvula extensively adopted these coin designs tends to suggest that Strato II had been quite a significant ruler in his eyes.
