Արտաշէսեան դրամահատութիւնը», «Հայկազեան հայագիտական հանդէս», 1982-1984, Պէյրութ, էջ 193-202https://haigrepository.haigazian.edu.lb/handle/123456789/637It is rather surprising that hitherto no coins have been assigned with certainty to the founder of the Artaxiad Dynasty, Artaxias I. The same holds true for his son and successor Artavastes I. However, previously the author has attributed a coin to Artaxias I with hesitation; it could also possibly be assigned to Artavastes I. After a decade of new numismatic finds and progress, the name of the monarch in question has turned out to be not Artaxias after all. On the light of the most recent numismatic findings, the author is convinced that the coins bearing on their reverse an eagle perching on the top of a steep hill should be attributed to Artavastes III.
