Reverse description	The idealized effigy of Arsakes I, the dynastic founder and heroic archer, is depicted seated to the right upon an omphalos throne, his body upright and robed. He holds a strung bow horizontally in his right hand, a hallmark device of Arsacid coinage symbolizing royal and martial authority. A monogram appears below the bow in the lower field. The surrounding Greek legend is arranged in seven lines forming a square frame around the central figure, recording the royal titulature of Orodes II.
