A standing figure of the king faces right before the altar, rendered in the hieratic style characteristic of Persis coinage. To the right, a column surmounted by an eagle completes the composition, a standard dynastic and religious iconographic arrangement for this series.

Aanvullende informatie

Darius I of Persis — known in the sources as Darayan — ruled as one of the Frataraka successors who governed the region as semi-autonomous dynasts under Seleucid suzerainty before asserting fuller independence. The Hemidrachm denomination places this issue within a monetary system consciously calibrated to Seleucid weight standards, a pragmatic accommodation to regional trade networks even as the dynasty increasingly emphasized its Iranian heritage in iconography. Alram 555 and Sunrise 581 represent a tightly defined type within what remains a sparsely documented series.
