<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Parthicus, post: 6463679, member: 81887&quot;][USER=19463]@dougsmit[/USER] : You are correct, if we accept the reassignment of S. 81 coinage to Sanatrukes (the nephew of Osroes I), there are no coins struck under authority of Parthamaspates.&nbsp; Given that Parthamaspates&#039; sphere of influence seems to have covered only Ktesiphon and not included any of the drachm-producing mints of the Iranian plateau, this makes sense.</p><p>[USER=15481]@svessien[/USER] : Do you mean something like the tesserae from the Roman world?&nbsp; Not impossible, though I rather doubt it.&nbsp; Tesserae (and their spicy cousin spintriae <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie101" alt=":woot:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />) have designs distinct from the normal circulating coinage, while these show normal designs for their time.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
