| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed right-facing bust of King Bagadates I, portrayed with a short beard and mustache, wearing a distinctive kyrbasia (the pointed satrapal headdress) with the side flaps tied behind the head; a prominent earring is visible. The portrait is rendered in the Achaemenid-influenced style characteristic of early Persis coinage, with fine engraving capturing the ruler's facial features in three-quarter relief. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Bagadates I is generally recognized as the earliest ruler of Persis to issue coinage in his own name, making this drachm one of the foundational issues of the Frataraka dynasty's transition toward independent kingship. The kingdom occupied the old Achaemenid heartland in Fars province and minted under the shadow of Seleucid authority — whether Bagadates ruled as a vassal or in genuine defiance of Antioch remains debated among specialists, and the dating range itself reflects that ambiguity. Alram 512 is among the scarcer die pairings documented for this ruler.
