Sylloge Nummorum Graecorum. Copenhagen. Supplement : Acquisitions 1942-1966 (2002)
Copenhagen: Danish National Museum, 2002
Abstract: Later included in volume 7 of the reprinted SNG Copenhagen. 250 coins are listed, and all are pictured on 7 beautiful folio-size plates. The book is a work of art itself, but Kroh [Reviews, 45] maintains that the text is now obsolete. Olson complains that the editors used modern Greek miniscule characters in place of the actual epigrams and made frequent reference to "barbarian letterforms". [Greek Letterforms, 1973, 39]. See review by G. K. Jenkins, Num Chron, ser. 7, vol. 10 (1970), pp. 321-323.

Davies (1949), Y. Mishra and M. Ismail (1952), I. M. Raisner et al. (1959), A. J. Toynbee and E. D. Myers (1959), B. N. Puri (1965), M. Penkala (1966) and A. H. Dani (1967), plus the author's composite view.

"The Parthian coins of Gotarzes I, Orodes I, and Sinatruces" (1962)
Numismatic Chronicle, 1962, tome/ser. 7, vol. 2, p. 73-89.
Abstract: "In presenting a revised listing of the kings of the Arsacid kingdom, Sellwood replaces Artabanus II with Gotarzes I and Orodes I. Wroth's series of Artabanus II coins (BMC Parthia) are given to Gotarzes, and his Sinatruces coins to Orodes. To Sinatruces are assigned the issues which Wroth placed tentatively under the name of Phraates III." [F. Campbell, NL 70]
 
"Wroth's unknown Parthian king" (1965)
Numismatic Chronicle, 1965, tome/ser. 7, vol. 5, p. 113-135.
Abstract: In BMC Parthia Wroth postulated an Unknown King reigning before 57 B.C. Drachm monograms and other evidence are used to vindicate Wroth's theories and a tentative identification is made with Darius of Media Atropatene, an opponent of Pompey. The relevance of data from Susa is also considered. [Author]

"A die engraver sequence for later Parthian drachms" (1967)
Numismatic Chronicle, 1967, tome/ser. 7, vol. 7, p. 13-28.
Abstract: The probable chronological sequence of the main engravers of the reverse dies of Parthian drachms from A.D. 12-150 is established. From this follow certain re-attributions of the associated obverse die types; thus most of the drachms given by Wroth to Gotarzes II are placed earlier. Reference is also made to the new readings of the later Pahlavi legends. [Author] See review by A. M. Guardán, Gaceta Numismatica, No. 11 (Dec 1968), p. 21.

Absolutely essential reading for an understanding of the assignment of the drachms to the various Parthian kings, and the details to look for when studying these coins.

Abstract: Also seen referenced as "Deux notes sur la monnayage Parthe", same journal and pagination.
Sellwood deals with the monograms appearing on drachm issues appearing from Type 35 (Sellwood 1971) onwards. He also deals with an early drachm (Sellwood 1971 Type 10/13), on the reverse of which occurs the inscription "Mened...". This is hardly a geographical name as Sellwood maintains, but the name of an official, although it is admittedly placed in a very prominent position. [Mørkholm, "Greece to India", 1979]

In: Carson, R. A. G. (ed.), Mints, dies and currency: Essays dedicated to the memory of Albert Baldwin
London: Methuen, 1971, p. 33-37.
Abstract: Sellwood looks at changes in drachm dies (types 34 and 42), where symbols have been changed in order to assimilate the coins to other issues. He also includes some die alterations of the later period. [Mørkholm, "Greece to India", 1979]
