Beschrijving voorzijde Diademed and bearded bust of Ardashir V facing, crowned with a Parthian-style tiara decorated with a pellet-in-crescent device. The portrait is rendered in the late Persis dynastic tradition, with fine detail in the beard and headdress ornament. The field surrounding the effigy carries an Aramaic legend.

Aanvullende informatie

Ardashir V ruled Persis as the last of its indigenous kings before his own cousin — or possibly brother — Ardashir I of the Arsacid-replacing Sasanian dynasty conquered the region and ended roughly five centuries of semi-autonomous Perside rule. The precise relationship between the two men remains disputed, which matters here: this coin was struck in the final years before the Sasanian conquest, somewhere between 211 and 224 AD, making it effectively a terminal issue for the kingdom.

The Sunrise 692 reference places this among the earliest and most precisely catalogued of Perside types. Göbl's Sasanian corpus includes it partly because the iconographic and monetary conventions of Persis fed directly into early Sasanian coinage design.
