| 表面の説明 | Frontal bust of a Sasanian-style ruler depicted in the tradition of late Sasanian royal portraiture, wearing a distinctive mural or segmented crown with flanking ornaments. The face is rendered with stylized features including large almond-shaped eyes, a prominent nose, and a flowing beard. The bust is shown in full face, a departure from the typical Sasanian profile convention, reflecting the transitional Arab-Sasanian aesthetic of the early Umayyad period. The surrounding field is plain, with the flan showing characteristic irregular edges typical of early Islamic copper coinage. |

| 裏面の説明 | Frontal or near-frontal bust rendered in a debased Sasanian style, showing a bearded male figure with flowing hair and stylized facial features consistent with Arab-Sasanian copper coinage of the late 7th to early 8th century. The design reflects a provincial interpretation of Sasanian royal imagery, with simplified linear engraving and worn surface detail typical of heavily circulated copper fals of this period. The flan is irregular and the fields are plain, with no visible mint marks or marginal inscriptions discernible on this example. |

The Arab-Sasanian coinage series represents the Umayyad administration's pragmatic retention of pre-Islamic Sasanian visual conventions during the early conquest period, when local populations still needed familiar monetary forms. By the time this piece was struck, Abd al-Malik's sweeping monetary reforms of 696–698 had already replaced the silver and gold coinage with purely epigraphic Islamic types — copper was simply last in line for reform, left to regional governors and local mint authorities longer than any other metal.
The name "Mansur" on this fals almost certainly refers to a local governor or mint official rather than a caliph. Copper attribution in this transitional phase remains genuinely contested among specialists.
