ordes ii? is it from elymais? Yes, it is from Elymias (or Elam) - with the controversies around the numbering of the rulers, I'll give it to you. I have it down as:   AE Drachm from Orodes I (early 2nd century AD) - Sear(GIC)#5892 Obverse: Profile bust left, wearing tiara, trident and crescent at right Reverse: [Y]RWD[ES] to left of bust of Artemis right, to the right [B]ASLE[VS] |

With my bad eyesight I can just barely make out the bust. Mithradates II?

Not sure which period it belongs to, could even be one of the dreaded LRBs. But I try my luck first in the first century:
Vitellius?

Looks more like a Mongol warrior, but I assume it's Byzantine, so
Justinian I?
Oops - you changed the picture, back to the drawing board.
