Thank you Pekka  :) ;) +++

Sorry but I unfortunately do not have a catalog is currently accurate reference to the Parthian coin.

Now I corrected:

Parthia, Vologases V. (191-208 A.D.), BI-Tetradrachm, Sellwood 87-15, King left on throne, #1
avers: King head, left, w/multi-strand diadem, loop, and 4 ribbons, curly hair on top, side hair in a bun of concentric curls over the ear, mustache, long triangular beard, earring ?, 2-layer necklace w/central medallion, tunic/cuirass w/ornamental border.
revers: King, left, on throne, receiving wreath or diadem from facing goddess in long robe, between the heads the year HΦ (194/195 AD), exergual line, partial letters around the edge.
exerg: -/-//--, diameter: 24mm, weight: 13,12g, axes: 0h,
mint: Seleukia, date:HΦ=194/195 A.D., ref: Sellwood 87.15, Shore 444,
