Pakor II (or Pakur II, Greek: Pakoros) was the king of Persis under Parthian suzerainty in the first half of the first century AD.[1] He was the son of Wahshir and successor of Pakor I.[1] He was the first Persid ruler to put his name on the obverse of his coins, some of which show a three-pointed star on the reverse, the meaning of which is unclear.[2]
