I bought my first Parthian coin!
I believe this Parthian coin to be king Orodes I, Sellwood catalog number 31.
(David Sellwood's An Introduction to the Coinage of Parthia, London: Spink, 1980)
It has the seven-line Greek legend, two lines on top, left, bottom, one line right.
I used the Parthia.Com website to get my identification.
The Greek legend is hard to read, but I think I found a match for it as Sellwood legend Orodes I 31i.
Coin:
"[Of the] Great King, Arsaces, the Autocrat, the Father-loving, the Noble, the Greek-loving"

About the only greek coin I would want right now would be concerning Lionides, (thanks to the movie 300).
