Sasanian coinage was produced within the domains of the Iranian Sasanian Empire (224–651). Together with the Roman Empire, the Sasanian Empire was the most important money-issuing polity in Late Antiquity.[1] Sasanian coinage had a significant influence on coinage of other polities.[2][1] Sasanian coins are a pivotal primary source for the study of the Sasanian period, and of major importance in history and art history in general.[2][3] The Sylloge nummorum Sasanidarum is the most important primary work of reference for Sasanian coins.[2]
