| Obverse description | Bearded bust of King Kamnaskires V facing left, wearing a distinctive tiara or diadem adorned with a stepped or turreted crown over a thick curled hair mass, with long ringlets descending behind the ear. The king is draped in a decorative garment, with a visible torque or necklace at the neck. To the right of the bust, an anchor symbol — the dynastic emblem of Elymais — appears in the field. The overall style reflects the late Hellenistic-Parthian artistic tradition, with a characteristically broad, schematic rendering of facial features. |
