| 正面描述 | Bare-headed bust of Gotarzes II facing left, featuring a long, somewhat pointed beard and a diadem with a loop at the crown and three trailing ends. A distinctive lock of hair on the forehead represents the royal wart, a dynastic emblem of Arsacid rulers. The portrait displays the characteristic late Parthian artistic style with bold, stylized facial features. The field is enclosed by a border of dots. |

Gotarzes II secured the Parthian throne through prolonged civil war against his half-brother Vardanes I, a conflict that consumed most of the 40s AD and left the empire fractured before either man could consolidate power. Vardanes was assassinated around 47 AD, leaving Gotarzes unchallenged but ruling a kingdom exhausted by internal war. The Seleucia mint, on the Tigris, had long carried symbolic weight — its cooperation or resistance was a reliable barometer of which claimant held practical control of Mesopotamia.
Sellwood 65 types show a notably degraded portrait style compared to earlier Parthian tetradrachms, likely reflecting disrupted die-cutting continuity during the succession conflicts.
