| Obverse description | Draped bust of Tigranes IV facing right, wearing the distinctive Armenian tiara adorned with a star and decorated with a stepped battlemented crown pattern, characteristic of the Artaxiad royal headdress. The portrait is rendered in a Hellenistic style, with fine facial features visible in profile. The circumferential Greek legend reads ΒΑΣΙΛΕΥС ΜΕΓΑС ΝΕΟС ΤΙΓΡΑΝΗС, identifying the king as Tigranes the Great, the New King, running around the outer border of the flan. |
