Drachm - Napad

Napad ruled Persis as a vassal king under Parthian overlordship, and the precise sequencing of his reign relative to other late Persis dynasts remains contested among specialists — Alram's placement in the late first to early second century AD represents one scholarly position, not a consensus. The kingdom itself was a cultural holdout, continuing to strike coins in an archaic style and script at a time when most of the Iranian plateau had absorbed Parthian numismatic conventions wholesale.

Sunrise 635 and Alram 612 align on type, which narrows attribution confidently even when individual specimens show die drift common to this small regional mint.
