| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Vadfradad I (Autophradates I in Greek sources) ruled Persis as a semi-autonomous vassal kingdom during the Seleucid period, and this Victory type tetradrachm is among the earliest coinage struck by the Frataraka dynasts — the priestly governors who maintained Persian cultural and religious traditions long after Alexander's conquest had dismantled the Achaemenid order. The series demonstrates deliberate archaism, looking backward to pre-Hellenistic Persian iconography at a moment when Seleucid influence dominated nearly every neighboring mint.
Extremely rare in any condition. The Sunrise collection specimen, now among the most referenced examples of the type, remains the benchmark for attribution.
