Beschrijving voorzijde Diademed and bearded male head in right profile, the ruler wearing a kyrbasia (Persian tiara) adorned with an eagle finial at the apex, with a diadem tied behind the neck. The facial features are rendered in a stylised Achaemenid-Persian tradition, with a prominent nose, carefully detailed curled beard rendered in granular relief, and a large, expressive eye. The hair issues from beneath the headdress in wavy locks. The field is plain and unscribed, enclosed within a dotted border.

Aanvullende informatie

Autophradates II ruled Persis as a vassal under the Arsacid Parthian empire, yet the Persis dynasts consistently issued coinage in their own names — a deliberate assertion of regional autonomy that Parthian overlords periodically tolerated and periodically suppressed. The variant recorded here lacks the reverse legend present on the standard Alram 546, a deviation noted across a handful of known specimens and likely reflecting a die cutter working outside the principal workshop, though the exact attribution remains contested in the literature.
