Drachm - Umayya b. 'Abd Allah Arab-Sasanian

Obverse description	Sasanian-style bust of the governor Umayya b. 'Abd Allah facing right, depicted in the traditional late Sasanian manner with a distinctive mural crown surmounted by a crescent and ribbons. The bust is draped and rendered in the stylized Sasanian artistic tradition inherited from the Yazdegerd III and Khusro II drachm prototypes. Arabic bismillah inscription appears in the obverse margin alongside the governor's name in Pahlavi script. The overall design closely follows the Sasanian prototype while incorporating early Islamic epigraphic elements.

Reverse description	Sasanian-style fire altar with attendants standing on either side, each figure facing inward toward the altar in the traditional Zoroastrian iconographic convention directly derived from late Sasanian coinage. The fire altar is depicted in the center with flames rising from the top. Flanking attendants are shown in profile, wearing Sasanian court dress. Pahlavi mint and regnal year inscriptions appear in the fields to the left and right of the altar, following the standard Arab-Sasanian reverse layout. Concentric circular border frames the entire design.
