Pakor I ruled Persis as a vassal king under Parthian suzerainty, and the fractional silver issues attributed to his reign reflect the persistence of a distinctly local coinage tradition that the Arsacid overlords largely tolerated in the region. Persis maintained its own dynastic mint when neighboring territories had long since been absorbed into Parthian monetary practice.
Sunrise 612 places this obol within a sequence that remains difficult to attribute with precision — the chronology of Persid kings is still contested among specialists, with some placing Pakor I earlier in the dynastic sequence than the Sunrise catalogue assumes.
