| Reverse description | Draped bust of Abgar X Phraates, king of Osroene, facing right, wearing a distinctively tall tiara adorned with diadem; a star appears in the field behind the portrait. The royal legend is inscribed in Greek around the effigy, enclosed within a beaded border. The artistic rendering reflects the hybrid Greco-Oriental style characteristic of Edessan civic coinage. |
