Sasanian empire silver coin of 1 drachma showing on its obverse side Sasanian king Shapur I (240-272 CE). The king wears his typical crenelated crown with ear flaps. Above the crown, his Korymbos (spherical veiled hairdress) is seen. A double ribbon flows behind the head of the monarch. A Pehlevi Inscription and a single grenetis complete the image. On the reverse side, a fire burns on an altar between 2 crowned soldiers, a hand on their sword, the other holding a lance. Between them, a fire altar dedicated to God Mithra. Here again, a Pehlevi inscription and a single grenetis achieve the decoration. Personal collection coin, Scanned february 2010. |
