("Lord") in front of the King. Degraded Pahlavi legend around. Reverse: Fire altar with attendants.[1][2]The Sasanian coinage of Sindh refers to a series of Sasanian-style issues, minted from 325 to 480 CE in Sindh, in the southern part of modern Pakistan, with the coin type of successive Sasanian Empire rulers, from Shapur II to Peroz I.[1] Together with the coinage of the Kushano-Sasanians, these coins are often described as "Indo-Sasanian".[3] They form an important part of Sasanian coinage.
