A beautiful coin over 2,000 years old. Looks pristine, although NGC graded it AU. Features Mithradates II, king of the Parthian Kingdom from 124 BC to 91 BC. He was responsible for opening the Silk Road by establishing relations with China, as well as signing the first treaty with Rome in 92 BC. He was known as Mithradates the Great. Cool !
