| Obverse description | Draped bust of Phraates III facing left, rendered in fine Hellenistic style. The king wears an elaborate tiara adorned with a prominent row of stags in relief, with a diadem tied behind the head and long hair falling in beaded locks onto the shoulder. The beard is carefully detailed with individual curls. The portrait is executed with naturalistic modelling characteristic of late Parthian royal coinage. |
