ARAB-SASANIAN: Khusraw type, ca. 653-670, AR drachm (4.05g), WYHC, YE35, A-4, rare mint for this type, lovely Very Fine to Extremely Fine, RR. WYHC had been the Sasanian Treasury mint, located presumably at Aspanvar near Ktesiphon until the end of the Sasanian era, and it likely that Arab-Sasanian coins dated up until AH50 apply to the same location, whereas the later WYHC refers to Veh-az-Amid-Kavad, i.e., Arrajan in Fars province.

Estimate: 300-400 USD
