| Reverse description | The enthroned archer motif, emblematic of Arsacid coinage, depicts a male figure — identified as Arsaces I, the dynasty's founder — seated right upon an omphalos, holding a strung bow extended in his outstretched right hand. A four-line Greek legend is arranged in a square frame surrounding the central device, with no palm branch present in the field, distinguishing this subtype from related issues. |
