93-69 B.C. Sinatruces Silver Drachm

With the Parthian Empire in turmoil as rival dynasties fought for territory, the central Asian tribe of Sacaraucae made a bold move and crowned 80-year-old Sinatruces king. His mandate was to rebuild unity and keep the important Silk Road trade route open between Rome and China.

Hand struck from 93 to 69 B.C., the obverse of these handsome silver Drachms in Near Mint State grades feature the king wearing a crown decorated with stags, symbols of stamina, instinct and spiritual enlightenment. On the reverse, an archer sits with his bow in honor of the empire’s founder, Arsakes.
