ARAB-SASANIAN: Farrukhzad, ca. 695-699, AE pashiz (3.84g), DShT (Dasht Barin), YE64, A-41A, standard Khusro style obverse & reverse, with governor's name right of the bust on obverse, mint & date in usual positions on reverse, Very Fine, RRR. Gyselen read the date as "104" rather than "64". If the date is interpreted as a regnal year of the long-deceased Khusro II, that would be 694 or 695 AD, equivalent to AH74-75 or AH75-76, whereas YE64 is AH76/77, from Safar 76 to Safar 77. Thus both interpretations could be correct!
