Reverse description Fire altar depicted centrally, with two attendants standing on either side facing inward toward the altar in the classic Sasanian iconographic tradition. The attendants are rendered in profile, flanking the stepped altar base. The composition closely follows standard late Sasanian drachm reverse types, reflecting the imitative nature of the coinage.
