| Beschrijving voorzijde | Diademed bust of Mithridates II facing left, rendered in fine Hellenistic style with pronounced beard and elaborately curled hair confined beneath a beaded diadem with long ribbon ties. The king wears a torque or beaded necklace, and his draped bust is depicted with careful attention to regal detail. A dynastic monogram appears in the right field behind the royal effigy, serving as a mint or magistrate control mark. The portrait displays the high-relief sculptural quality characteristic of early Parthian royal coinage, with strong facial features and a sharply defined profile. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The Parthian archer-king type is depicted: a bearded figure seated right upon an omphalos, clad in Parthian dress, holding a strung bow in the outstretched right hand. The Greek legend ΒΑΣΙΛΕΩΣ ΜΕΓΑΛΟΥ ΑΡΣΑΚΟΥ ΕΠΙΦΑΝΟΥΣ surrounds the central type, identifying the king by his royal titles. The letter N appears in the left field as a control mark or mint indicator. The composition follows the established Arsacid reverse iconography, invoking the dynasty's martial and nomadic heritage through the emblematic bow-bearing posture. |
