<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Parthicus, post: 24570198, member: 81887&quot;]Thanks for the link to your very thorough webpage.&nbsp; I also collect coins showing Rome&#039;s conflicts with Persia, though I&#039;m primarily an &quot;Eastern&quot; collector.&nbsp; Here&#039;s a couple of types you don&#039;t have on your page, both sestertius of Trajan.&nbsp; First, a REX PARTHIS DATVS ([A] King given to Parthia) showing Trajan presenting Parthamaspates to a figure of Parthia:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1558100[/ATTACH]</p><p>And a REGNA ADSIGNATA [Kingdoms assigned), showing Trajan bestowing crowns on three new client-kings.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1558101[/ATTACH]</p><p>Also, I should mention that G.R.F. Assar has made a clear and logical argument (in his essay in the Sunrise Collection book) why the Sellwood type 81 drachms, traditionally attributed to Parthamaspates (which you do on your page), were almost certainly not struck by or for Parthamaspates at all.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
