| Beschrijving keerzijde | A horse standing or prancing to the right occupies the central field, rendered in a compact, stylized form consistent with Parthian bronze coinage of the late second and early first centuries BC. The animal is depicted with visible musculature and a raised foreleg. Surrounding the central motif is a circular Greek legend arranged around the periphery, enclosed within a dotted border. The overall composition reflects the Hellenistic influence retained in Parthian coinage under Sinatruces. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Sinatruces came to the Parthian throne as an old man — ancient sources put him at roughly 80 years of age at his accession around 93 BC — after being recalled from exile among the Sacaraucae Scythians to stabilize a kingdom torn apart by dynastic infighting and the incursions of Tigranes the Great of Armenia. His reign was short, and bronze issues attributable to him are correspondingly scarce. Sellwood 34.9 is among the less frequently encountered types in the series, reflecting the compressed window of his rule.
