Hint- This king is old school and put himself on the reverse.

Most coins which have a rider on the reverse don't show the king even with the legend around given the name.
One who did it on some coins (weak guess):
Philip II?

Had to check because of the different listings for names/times, I have it as Phraataces and some have it as Phraates V but I'll give it to you.   And since you don't want to post we give 'Ancientnoob' the chance to post one - after he gets up from the floor.  |
