<p>[QUOTE="Quant.Geek, post: 5138756, member: 74799"]Thanks a lot [USER=44316]@Valentinian[/USER]! I, currently, don't have a catalog for either Elymaean nor Persis coinage and this free book will come in handy. I don't have many, but the ones I do have came from the Sunrise Collection that I bought a few years ago when it went on the auction block. Here are some of them, the others are on my FORVM Gallery:</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/36484/Sunrise-595.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><b> </b></p><p><b>Kingdom of Persis: Artaxerxes II (ca. 1st Century BCE) AR Hemidrachm (Sunrise-595; Klose & Müseler 4/12b; Alram 571; Tyler-Smith 42-6) </b></p><p>Obv: Small bust of Artaxerxes II left, with short beard, wearing diadem with three ties, torque with three segments, and mural crown; no symbol behind</p><p>Rev: King standing left, holding scepter and sacrificing before altar to left</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/36484/Sunrise-599.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><b> Kingdom of Persis: Artaxerxes II (ca. 1st Century BCE) AR Hemidrachm (Sunrise-599; Klose & Müseler 4/12a; Alram-574; Tyler-Smith 68-9) </b></p><p>Obv: Large bust of Artaxerxes II left, with short beard, wearing diadem with two ties, torque with three segments, and mural crown, symbol behind</p><p>Rev: King standing left, holding sceptre and sacrificing before altar to left</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/36484/Sunrise-656.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><b> </b></p><p><b>Kingdom of Persis: Artaxerxes III (ca. 1st to 2nd Century CE) AR Hemidrachm (Sunrise-656; Klose & Müseler 5/8; Alram-630) </b></p><p>Obv: Bust of Artaxerxes III left, wearing diadem, crescent (with star?) to right</p><p>Rev.
