There really is no good references, outside of coins listed for sale... Alex Fishman just wrote the book on them and is currently on sale on numismall, by Ancient Coins Canada. In hindsight the ruler seems unfair...and I pass the honor to you... The Western Satraps (255-278 AD) AR Drachm 14.4 mm x 2.09 g Obv.Bust of Rudrasena II corrupted Greek script Saka Era off flan.

When I think of Baths I think of Caracalla.
