Bust of Artabanus V left with long square-cut beard, wearing double banded diadem with double loop, spiral torque, earring visible; dotted border., Archer seated right on throne, holding bow; monogram below bow., Superb specimen having hardly circulated, the obverse strike is off-centered downwards. There is much debate about the attribution of the coins of the Parthian kings Artabanus; the specimen offered for sale has been classified by NGC as a strike dated earlier to the reign of Artabanus III/IV but now attributed to Artabanus V.
