| Reverse description | The enthroned king Orodes III seated left on a throne, his right hand extended holding a bow — the traditional emblem of Arsacid royal authority. A Greek inscription surrounds the scene in the field, with a regnal year notation placed to the inner right of the figure and a month designation rendered in the exergue. The reverse legend, in degraded Greek script characteristic of the late Parthian period, reads the royal titulature. The composition follows the established Sellwood type 59 reverse convention for late Parthian tetradrachms. |
