Arab Sasanian, Salm bin Ziyad (680-84), Drachm, 3.94g, HRA (Herat), AH67, star in reverse margin at 11 o'clock (A. 18), very fine to good very fine

Most Drachms of this date and type are thought to be Hephthalite imitations. They usually bear a Hephthalite countermark. This coin is unusual as it only has a star in the margin, which appears to be a component of the original die.
