| Reverse description | Vologases III enthroned left in regal posture, receiving a wreath from Tyche, the goddess of fortune, who stands to the right in presentation pose. Above the main composition, the Greek letters ΔΛΥ appear in the field, likely denoting a regnal or dating element. The exergue contains an abbreviated month designation. The scene follows the established Parthian royal investiture iconographic formula. |
