| Beschrijving keerzijde | A fire altar depicted centrally, rendered in the typical Sasanian style with flames rising from the altar top and stepped base below, flanked by two attendant figures standing facing inward in adoration. The attendants wear Sasanian court dress and are shown in a frontal or three-quarter stance. Pahlavi inscriptions appear in the field to either side of the altar, identifying the king and his titles. The design is characteristic of the Zoroastrian religious iconography standard on Sasanian coinage of Shapur I's reign, executed in hammered copper with irregular flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Shapur I's copper pashiz coinage remains poorly understood in terms of mint attribution — Göbl's classification acknowledges significant die variation across the 170–171 range without resolving precise production centers. What is certain is that these circulated during the most militarily triumphant stretch of Shapur's reign: the period following his capture of the Roman emperor Valerian at the Battle of Edessa in 260 AD, the only time in history a sitting Roman emperor was taken prisoner by a foreign power.
