  • Product Details
    The coinage of the Sassanian Empire was one of the most important trade coins of the Dark Ages and has been found in cities from Byzantium to Rome. The coins traveled as far north as Scandinavia and have been found in Viking burial plots.

    Coin Highlights:
    • Sasanian Silver AR Drachms were minted sometime from 224-651 AD.
    • Comes in protective packaging.
    • Random kings, motifs, grades, and weights. Coins normally grade from Very Fine to Extra Fine.
    • Obverse: Typically a crowned and cuirassed bust. Kings include Khusro II, Peroz I, and Kavad I.
    • Reverse: Usually a fire altar flanked by two attendants, monograms, and astrological symbols.
