| 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.
