| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bust of Wahram IV facing right within a beaded border, depicted wearing the distinctive Sasanian royal crown with elaborate headdress. The effigy shows the king in profile with characteristic Sasanian artistic styling, the face rendered in low relief with simplified facial features typical of lead pashiz coinage. Flanking attendant figures or decorative elements appear in the field to either side of the royal bust. The overall composition is contained within a circular border, consistent with the small module of this base-metal fractional denomination. |

Lead pashiz issues of Wahram IV occupy an awkward corner of Sasanian numismatics — base-metal fractions whose exact denominational relationship to the silver drachm remains unresolved. Wahram IV ruled for roughly a decade, a reign defined more by its uneventful stability than by crisis, which makes the relative obscurity of his coinage a function of scholarly neglect rather than historical drama. Lead issues specifically are poorly documented in major collections, surviving in small numbers with provenance rarely traceable beyond nineteenth-century excavation lots in the eastern provinces.
