| Beschrijving keerzijde | A fire altar with decorative ribbons occupies the central field, flanked by two attendants or fire-priests standing in facing postures, each serving as guardian of the sacred flame in the Zoroastrian tradition. A crescent and star appear above the altar in the upper field. The reverse carries mint and regnal year inscriptions in Pahlavi script within the surrounding field, identifying the place of issue and year of production. |

Kavadh II seized the throne in early 628 by deposing his father Khosrow II, who died in prison shortly after — likely executed on his son's orders. The reign lasted roughly eight months before Kavadh succumbed to plague, the same epidemic that was cutting through a Sasanian state already gutted by decades of Byzantine war and internal revolt. He managed to negotiate peace with Heraclius and return the True Cross, but the dynasty never recovered its footing.
Type I/1 represents the earliest emission of his reign, struck before the administrative machinery had fully transitioned from Khosrow-era dies.
