Beschrijving keerzijde A fire altar with a central shaft decorated with a trefoil of pellets stands in the center, the altar flames flanked by symbolic devices. Two standing royal attendants flank the altar; the figure to the left wears a winged crown surmounted by a korymbos, while the attendant to the right wears a mural crown. Ribbons adorn the altar, and the composition follows the canonical Sasanian sacred fire iconography within a beaded border.

Aanvullende informatie

Narseh seized the Sasanian throne by force in 293, overthrowing his grandnephew Bahram III after a reign of just four months. His own rule ended in humiliation: defeated by the Roman Caesar Galerius at the Battle of Satala in 298, he was compelled to sign the Treaty of Nisibis, surrendering five territories east of the Tigris and handing over members of the royal family as hostages. The gold coinage struck across his decade of rule is consequently limited in volume, with the SNS Id/3c variety among the more precisely documented die groupings from this short and troubled reign.
