Note
This type is generally considered to be the earliest indisputably Islamic coin. Most of the coins bear the "frozen" date year 20, which is believed to have been struck without change over a 15-year period. They bear the portrait of the Sassasian ruler, Yazdgard, with the addition of the Islamic words bism Allah (In the name of Allah). The term Arab-Sassasian is a convenient description for such Islamic coins with Arabic and/or Pehlevi legends, but Sassasian types and denominations. These coins were issued by the Arabs who assumed the government of the Sassanian provinces after the overthrow of the monarchy. Yazdgard III, the last Sassanian monarch, was assassinated in 651 AD near Merv
