| Beschrijving keerzijde | A tall, tiered Zoroastrian fire altar depicted in the centre of the field, with flames rising vigorously from the altar cup, set upon a stepped base. Two attendant figures stand flanking the altar in full-length posture, each facing inward toward the sacred fire; the figure to the left appears draped in court robes, while the figure to the right is similarly attired with a distinctive headdress. The composition emphasises the dynastic and religious authority of the Sasanian ruler as guardian of the Zoroastrian faith. The scene is enclosed within a beaded border consistent with the obverse. A Pahlavi legend appears in the field to the right of the altar. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hormazd I ruled for less than a year following the death of Shapur I, making his coinage among the briefest-reign issues in the Sasanian series. The dynasty was barely thirty years old at this point, still consolidating the fire-altar and investiture imagery that would define its numismatic output for the next four centuries, and Hormazd's issues show early typological features not yet standardized under later monarchs.
Die linkage studies suggest production was limited strictly to the central royal mint, with no provincial output confirmed for his reign.
