[QUOTE="Al Kowsky, post: 3902572, member: 97383"]Sulla80, Excellent well researched article ;). I like the denarius & the Parthian drachm. I've got one Parthian drachm of Mithradates II, also from the Ekbatana Mint, I'd like to post next to your coin just to point out differences :). My coin is probably slightly older than yours since your coin sports a longer beard. My coin shows the king siting on the omphalos & your coin shows him sitting on a throne. Your coin shows a dragon head on his torque that is missing on my coin. [ATTACH=full]1028575[/ATTACH] Ekbatana Mint: AR drachm, 3.94 gm, 20 mm, 12 h.
