This superb coin is a token of a mysterious interlude in the history of Parthia, the powerful eastern empire which challenged the might of Rome. Mithradates IV was a usurper to the throne whose reign is known chiefly through his coinage. Wearing this fascinating talisman, one of the few remaining clues from a dramatic life, we are reminded that time puts all things in perspective. - (FJ.1514)
