| Obverse description | Debased draped bust of the king facing left, with a long beard and wearing a tiara adorned with a beaded border. A crescent symbol appears to the upper right of the effigy, with an anchor device below or adjacent, both serving as royal and dynastic emblems. The portrait is rendered in the late Parthian provincial style characteristic of Elymaean coinage, with broad, summary engraving typical of the late Arsacid period. The entire design is set within a beaded border, visible along the coin's circumference. |
