Beschrijving voorzijde Bust of Shapur III facing right, wearing the distinctive Sasanian royal crown adorned with a crenellated diadem and surmounted by a large globular hair arrangement encased in a ribbed cap. The king is depicted with a beaded necklace and draped in royal attire, with elaborate jewellery visible at the shoulder. A short Inscriptional Pahlavi legend encircles the bust within the field, reading the royal titulature. The portrait is rendered in the characteristic high-relief hammered style of late Sasanian gold coinage.

Aanvullende informatie

Shapur III's reign lasted just five years, ended by his own nobles — according to later sources, he was killed when his tent was collapsed on him while he slept. His coinage is correspondingly scarce. The Göbl I classification places this among the earliest die groupings of the reign, before the type was refined.
