There are pictures of 3222 Parthian coins on this web site. The coins illustrated are from many different collections and are not for sale. If you have Parthian coins that are missing from this virtual collection -- or have better examples -- and would like to see them added to the pages here, please send me a message. I'll give you details on the correct graphics format for submission, and will arrange for photographing your coins, if necessary.
Here is a list of those coins required to complete this virtual collection.
Autonomous cities (Susa)
Meherdates (c. A.D. 49)
Phraates I
(c. 176 - 171 B.C.)
Phriapatius
(c. 191 - 176 B.C.)
I eventually want to have at least one image for every Sellwood coin type. As of now, I have no examples of the following types:
