    I can't tell much about Sassanian coinage. Can someone tell me which Sassanian King of Kings I have here. Sorry the images are not up to snuff. Thanks. Sassanian obv.jpg IMG_2124Sassanian rev..jpg

    Khusro II (590-628 AD). This looks like his earlier, more slender portrait style, but a typical weak strike that makes the date and mintmark on reverse too hard to read (for me). Your images are fine, it's the quality of the original strike that was not up to snuff.;)
