Tigranes II ruled the largest empire in Armenian history at its peak — stretching from the Caspian to the Mediterranean following his conquests in Syria and Mesopotamia — and his bronze coinage reflects the ambitions of a king who held the title "King of Kings." The Kovacs 82 dichalkon belongs to a municipal bronze tradition that continued even as Tigranes was simultaneously issuing silver tetradrachms from major urban mints like Tigranocerta, the capital he founded around 83 BC.
The series ends with Rome. Lucullus sacked Tigranocerta in 69 BC, effectively collapsing the western half of the empire and terminating civic bronze production at the mints under direct royal control.
