| Obverse description | Youthful beardless male head in left profile, wearing a soft Scythian-style bashlyk helmet with cheek-guards and neck flap rendered in fine detail. The effigy exhibits a smooth, idealized facial treatment consistent with early Parthian die-engraving conventions. The portrait is contained within a neat circular border of pellets arranged along the coin's periphery. |
