See the genealogy chart. The coins on this site are attributed according to Sellwood, 2nd edition (1980). However:
A. B. Nikitin maintains that Sellwood's types 35 and 36 were actually minted by Phraates III during the lifetime of his father Sinatruces which, Nikitin postulates, was a regular practice among the Arsacids.1 Fred Shore gives the Sellwood types 35, 36 and 37 to Phraates III.2
Sellwood has suggested that Darius was only a provincial prince or governor and could not be responsible for the widespread issue of the type 35 and 36 coins from numerous mints. This must indicate these types were issued by another king with the requisite wider authority.3
