Historical background


PARTHIAN KINGDOM - OSROES II

(c.190)

Osroes II seems to be a usurper who seized Iranian provinces at the end of the controversial reign of Vologèse IV (147-191). The typology of its coinage is quite close to that of the official monarch. It is possible that he kept power at the beginning of the reign of Vologesis V (191-208).
