Still cheaper than buying individually from a dealer despite the 18% juice added &amp; shipping.</p><p><br /></p><p>I had a few others I targeted of the same rulers but Frank Robinson himself outbid me on all of them, so I guess these two didn&#039;t appeal to him, thankfully.</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.postimg.cc/PJr9z56V/yaz.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>Yazdgird (Yazdgard) I (399 - 420 A.D.)</p><p>AR Drachm</p><p>O: Bust of Yazdgard I on floral ornament right, wearing mural crown with frontal crescent and korymbos.</p><p>R: Fire altar with ribbons, flanked by two attendants, crescents and letters flanking flames.</p><p>AW (Ahwaz) mint</p><p>4.16g</p><p>28mm</p><p>SNS type Ib1/1a var. 4 ; Göbl type I/1; Paruck -; Saeedi -; Sunrise 915var.</p><p><br /></p><p>Ex.
