| 裏面の説明 | Draped and crowned bust of Queen Musa (Thea Musa Urania) facing left, wearing a stephane or tiara upon her head. A palm frond appears to the left of the effigy in the field. The reverse design is exceptional in Parthian numismatics as it portrays a queen as co-ruler, reflecting the unique political status of Musa as consort and co-regent alongside Phraatakes. The engraving style is consistent with the late Hellenistic artistic conventions employed at Parthian mints circa 1-4 AD. |

Phraates V ruled jointly with his mother Musa, a Roman-born slave-woman given to Phraates IV by Augustus as a diplomatic gift. She engineered the assassination of Phraates IV alongside her son, then married him — a pairing so scandalous it drew explicit comment from Josephus and contributed directly to a Parthian noble revolt that drove them both from power within a few years of this coin's issue.
Sellwood 58.11 is one of the few Parthian types to bear two named individuals, reflecting a legitimacy crisis that the joint portrait was meant to resolve but probably deepened.
