KINGS OF ARMENIA. Tigranes II 'the Great', 95-56 BC. Tetrachalkon (Bronze, 15 mm, 3.42 g, 12 h), Artaxata, RY 40 = 57/6 (?). Draped bust of Tigranes II to right, wearing five-pointed tiara decorated with a star between two eagles and tied with a diadem; behind, [A]. Rev. [BA]ΣΙΛ[EΩΣ] - TIΓPANOY Nike advancing left, holding wreath in her right hand and palm over her left shoulder; below, [M] (?). Kovacs 114 (?). Extremely rare. Very fine.


From an important collection of Armenian coins.

There is no visible date on this coin, indicating that it was in the exergue and is off flan here, hence our tentative attribution to Kovacs 114.
