正面描述 Bare head of Tigranes I facing left, depicted in the Hellenistic portrait tradition. The king wears a distinctive Armenian four-pointed tiara adorned with a star emblem at the centre, the tiara secured with a diadem whose ties fall behind the neck. The portrait exhibits strong, individualised features consistent with royal coinage of the late second century BC.

附加信息

Tigranes I ruled Armenia as a Seleucid vassal for most of his reign, and the bronze coinage issued under him reflects the awkward cultural position of a kingdom caught between Hellenistic convention and emerging Armenian identity. His successor, Tigranes II "the Great," would go on to briefly construct one of the ancient world's most ambitious territorial empires — making the modest bronzes of Tigranes I effectively the opening chapter of that story.

Bedoukian's catalog of Armenian coinage remains the foundational reference for this series, though Kovacs has refined the attribution of several die groupings since its publication.
