Beschrijving voorzijde Diademed and bearded bust of Ardashir I (Ardashir V of Persis) facing, wearing a Parthian-style tiara adorned with a pellet-in-crescent device. The portrait is rendered in the local Persid tradition, with facial features worked in low relief characteristic of hammered silver fractions. The field surrounding the effigy is plain.

Aanvullende informatie

Ardashir V was the last ruler of the Kingdom of Persis before his own cousin Ardashir I — founder of the Sasanian Empire — overthrew and killed him around 224 AD, absorbing Persis into the new imperial order. The kingdom had survived as a semi-autonomous vassal state under Parthian suzerainty for centuries, issuing its own fractional silver throughout. This obol belongs to the final years of that long continuity, struck just before the dynasty was extinguished entirely.
