| Reverse description | Arsakes I, the dynastic founder and divine ancestor of the Parthian kings, is depicted seated right upon an omphalos throne, holding a strung bow in his right hand — the emblematic reverse type of Parthian coinage. The figure is rendered in a stiff, schematic style within a dotted rectangular border. The Greek dynastic legend surrounds the central type on all sides, reading in abbreviated or full form: BAΣIΛEΩΣ MEΓAΛoY APΣAKoY ΘEoΠATPoY NIKAToPoΣ. |
