<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 4433416, member: 19463&quot;]Santa is a king of Elymais.&nbsp; There is an exhaustive book on these by VanHaaff with major varieties broken down further that I understand but I believe yours is a VH 13.3 Orodes II but I really did not put a lot of effort checking that so consider it a place to start looking rather than truth.&nbsp; I bought a set of 12 different from Frank in 2014 when he had a million of them (possible exaggeration?) but he still has some it seems.&nbsp; For the price, they are cool coins but ID is from portraits and little details rather than legends.&nbsp; The book breaks them down into subtypes so you can add to the basic ID if you wish or just round it off to the first decimal place.&nbsp; Now that I have time to spare, I should go back and recheck the ID&#039;s I did back then.&nbsp; I might add that I disagree with many ID&#039;s I see posted online but that does not mean I am right and they are wrong.&nbsp; There are several facing head / dashes types from different rulers and you have to pay attention to the hair tufts and other assorted details.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
