Description

Une monnaie en billon, un tétradrachme, du roi indo-parthe Abdagasès qui a régné dans le Pendjab et peut-être le Seistan.

A/ BAΓIΛEYONTOΓ BAΣIΛEWN / ABΔAΣAZOY (Roi des rois Abdagasès) Roi cavalier passant à droite, faisant un geste de la main. Tamga. R/ Légende en Khrashthi : guduvharabhrataputrasa maharajasa / avadagashasa (Abdagasès neveu de Gondopharès grand roi) Zeus debout à droite faisant un geste de bénédiction de la main droite et tenant de la gauche un long sceptre. Monogramme à gauche de Zeus et akshara (lettre) à droite.

Dimensions : 23,18 mm – 23,95 mm Poids : 9,75 g. Référence : MACW 2608 ; BNF 449/450 série 5

Discussion : Les Parthes et les Scythes font partie du même groupe de nomades de langue iranienne. Les rois indo-parthes sont donc des concurrents des rois indo-scythes mais ils font partie du même groupe de population. On peut dater le règne d'Abdagasès probablement de la moitiè du premier siècle de notre ère.
