Drachm - Orodes II

Elymais or Elamais (Ἐλυμαΐς, Hellenic form of the more ancient name, Elam) was an autonomous state of the 2nd century BC to the early 3rd century AD, frequently a vassal under Parthian control, and located at the head of the Persian Gulf in the present-day region of Khuzestan, Iran (Susiana). The Elymaeans were skilled archers and natives of Susa, which lay to the east of the territory of Elymais. Most of the people of the kingdom were probably descendants of the ancient Elamites, who once had control of that area in the past. The provinces of Elymais were Massabatice (later Masabadhan), Corbiane and Gabiane. Source: Wikipedia

The Elymaeans appropriated the anchor motif in the latter part of the second century BC. It initially may have been intended as a symbol of the mint at Seleucia on the Hedyphon. In the early history of Elymais (which had supplanted Seleucid control of a small area at the north end of the Persian Gulf), the anchor's shape closely echoed the Seleucid version. Its shape changed some over the next several centuries on Elymaean coins as it became a general symbol of Elymais. It is believed that the number of crossbars on the anchors on coins from Elymais may be an indicator of mint location. Source: BobL on CoinCommunity.com, posted 4/27/2020.
