| Beschrijving voorzijde | Right-facing bust of Hormazd I rendered in high relief, depicting the king with an elaborate coiffure of voluminous curled locks and a full, beaded beard. The royal effigy is adorned with a mural crown surmounted by a distinctive korymbos — a large, globe-shaped hair bundle encased in cloth — a hallmark of early Sasanian royal portraiture. The king wears a beaded necklace and richly decorated robes visible at the shoulder. A circular Pahlavi legend surrounds the bust within a beaded border, proclaiming the king's divine mandate and royal titles. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Hormazd I ruled for less than a year — the precise dates are disputed, but most scholars place his reign somewhere between 270 and 273 AD, making this among the shortest reigns in Sasanian history. He succeeded Shapur I, architect of Rome's most humiliating defeat in centuries, and died before consolidating anything of his own. Coins attributable to him are correspondingly rare, with the Göbl classification identifying only a handful of die combinations across known specimens.
