| Obverse description | Diademed bust of Mithradates II facing left, rendered in the Hellenistic tradition, with a medium-length beard and a prominent earring. The neck is adorned with a spiral torque terminating in griffin-head finials, a characteristic royal Parthian emblem. The hair falls in structured waves beneath the diadem. The entire design is enclosed within a neat dotted border, giving the flan a refined, formal presentation consistent with regal coinage of the early Parthian court. |
