Correct series (Parthia, of course), but wrong ruler. Pulling out just a bit wider:  |

How about one more Parthian guess and, if wrong, I'll do a reveal? I don't want to hold the game up and perhaps this is too esoteric(?). Ah, the lonely life of a Parthian collector...

Darius?
Note: you can give other hint rather than revealing

Not Darius. Okay, before revealing, I'll provide this:
1. Fred Shore says this about him: "He was king of Mesopotamia during the invasion of Trajan."
2. His is an "O" name...and it's not Orodes.

You first hint would have been enough
Osroes I.

Excellent, Medieval. Yes, Osroes I:  And the Vologases guesses were not bad...but it was Volo V who issued the only other "hair bun" coins in the Parthian series:  Leia eat your heart out! |
