Beschrijving voorzijde Bearded male effigy in right-facing profile, depicting the ruler Darayan I wearing a distinctive satrapal helmet adorned with a crescent moon finial at the apex. The face is rendered with fine detail, showing a prominent beard composed of carefully delineated pellets or curls, a well-defined eye, and a strong jawline. Long hair flows from beneath the helmet, with a visible earring at the ear. The portrait occupies the full field of the flan in the Hellenistic-influenced Iranian tradition, with no surrounding legend.

Aanvullende informatie

Darev I — rendered in Greek sources as Darius — ruled Persis as a sub-kingdom under Parthian overlordship following the collapse of Seleucid control in the region. The Persid dynasts of this period carefully cultivated a connection to Achaemenid tradition while operating within a political structure that made them effectively vassal kings, a tension that surfaces in their coinage's deliberate archaism.

Alram 558 is among the scarcer emissions of the series. The fabric tends toward broad and thin flans, and off-center strikes are common enough to be expected rather than exceptional.
