| Reverse description | A Scythian-style bow presented within its gorytus (bow case), depicted vertically and centrally in the field, serving as the dynastic emblem of the early Arsacid rulers. To the right of the bow case, a single Greek legend is inscribed in the field, read from the outside inward. The entire design is enclosed within a circular border of pellets, consistent with early Parthian bronze coinage of the Sellwood Group 6 series. |
