| Reverse description | Abgar X Phraates, last king of Osroene, depicted as an equestrian figure riding to the right, wearing the distinctive Parthian-style tiara characteristic of the Abgarid dynasty. The king is shown in regal attire mounted on horseback, reflecting the hybrid Greco-Parthian artistic tradition of the region. The two-word Greek legend naming the king as basileus is distributed in the field around the equestrian type. The reverse die, though heavily worn and encrusted, preserves the essential iconographic elements of the royal horseman. |
