KINGS OF ARMENIA. Artaxias III, with Tiberius, 18-34. Oktachalkon (Bronze, 22.5 mm, 7.63 g, 9 h), Artaxata. Laureate head of Tiberius to right. Rev. Head of Artaxias III (Lucius Antonius Zeno) to right, wearing five pointed Armenian tiara. Unpublished, unknown and apparently unique. Heavily circulated, otherwise, fair.



The obverse of this heavily circulated coin is particularly close to the Oktachalka of Artaxias III (Kovacs 189). If it is indeed correctly attributed, this coin, apart from being unique, is the only depiction of Artaxias III.
