| Beschrijving voorzijde | Diademed and bearded bust of Pakor I facing left, rendered in the Parthian artistic tradition. The hair is elaborately dressed in multiple rows of tightly curled locks falling behind the neck, and the long beard is similarly articulated in relief with parallel curved striations. A diadem band is visible across the forehead. The portrait is bold and deeply struck, characteristic of Persis dynastic coinage of the early Common Era. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A triskeles motif occupies the central field, consisting of three curved, interlocking legs or spiral arms radiating from a central point, rendered in a flowing, dynamic style. The design is boldly struck with broad, sweeping curves filling the flan. This ancient symbol, frequently employed on Persis dynastic coinage, is presented without additional border or legend, consistent with the broader series attributed to Pakor I. |

The attribution of this piece sits in a genuine scholarly dispute. Alram catalogues it under Pakor II while Sunrise assigns it to Pakor I — a disagreement rooted in the difficulty of establishing a reliable dynastic sequence for the Persis rulers, whose chronology remains contested. Persis functioned as a semi-autonomous client kingdom under Parthian overlordship, and its coins circulated in a region that produced some of the most administratively obscure numismatic output of the ancient Iranian world.
The Sunrise 607 reference places this issue in the first half of the first century AD.
