Beschrijving keerzijde Diademed and bearded bust of a royal ancestor or dynastic predecessor facing left, rendered in a schematic Parthian style consistent with the votive reverse types common to the coinage of Persis. The portrait displays a flowing beard and simple diadem, set within a plain field typical of hammered silver issues of this kingdom. The composition is uncluttered, emphasizing the dynastic continuity expressed through ancestral portraiture.

Aanvullende informatie

Manchihr II ruled Persis as a vassal under Parthian suzerainty, and the hemidrachm denominations from his reign circulated within a region that the Arsacid empire never fully absorbed administratively — local dynastic coinage persisted here long after neighboring territories had been absorbed into Parthian monetary systems. Alram 635 and Sunrise 631 place this type within a relatively narrow attribution window, though the precise regnal chronology of the later Persis dynasts remains contested among specialists.
