| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bust of Bahram II (Varhran II) facing right, wearing a winged crown surmounted by a globe or korymbos, adorned with earrings and royal regalia. In the left field, a smaller confronting bust of the king's son faces left, wearing a cap distinguished by an animal-head device, variously identified as a boar-crown or horse-crown. The portrait style reflects the elaborate Sasanian court iconography characteristic of Bahram II's coinage, with fine detailing of the royal headdress and facial features executed in the hammered silver tradition. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Vahram II ruled the Sasanian Empire through a period of sustained dynastic instability — his reign saw at least two serious revolts, including that of his brother Hormizd in the east and the usurpation of Bahram III, who held power for only a few months in 293 before being deposed and likely executed. The type III/1 to IV/1 transition in Göbl's classification reflects a shift in the royal bust treatment that numismatists associate with changes in the court workshop, possibly tied to these political disruptions rather than any single mint reform.
