The king is depicted with a full beard, a prominent moustache, and large hoop earring, dressed in a finely detailed draped garment with beaded necklace. A Pahlavi legend in the field to the right identifies the ruler, all within a beaded border encircling the flan. |

Shapur II ascended the Sasanian throne in 309 AD under extraordinary circumstances: he was reportedly crowned while still in his mother's womb, making him the only king in recorded history to have been declared ruler before birth. He would go on to reign for seventy years — the longest of any Sasanian king — and his early coinage, produced in the first decade of that reign, reflects a court still consolidating authority around a child monarch.
The SNS PBW3 classification places this among the earliest die groupings of his reign, before the minting workshops had fully standardized production under his personal authority.
