Silver drachm of Osroes II struck in AD 190.
This issue continues the typological pattern of late Arsacid coinage, featuring the distinctively tall tiara ornamented with pellet decorations. The depiction of the archer on the reverse preserves the long-standing Parthian symbol of royal authority and divine legitimacy, while the mixed Aramaic and Greek legend reflects the transitional nature of the late Parthian administrative culture.
