| Aanvullende informatie |
Hormazd V and VI remain among the most poorly documented rulers in the entire Sasanian sequence — the dynasty was collapsing in real time, with at least twelve claimants cycling through the throne between the murder of Khosrow II in 628 and the accession of Yazdegerd III in 632. Attributing specific issues to one ruler versus the other is genuinely unresolved; Göbl himself acknowledged the difficulty, and the SNS references spanning multiple catalog numbers reflect that uncertainty rather than distinct varieties.
The mint attribution for this type remains debated. These years saw provincial minting increasingly disrupted by the Byzantine-Sasanian war's aftermath and the opening Arab raids into Mesopotamia.
