Texto en inglés. Tapa blanda de editorial ilustrada. Como nuevo, sin recorrido comercial, con retractilado plástico de editorial sin rasgar. The present monograph provides a survey of the Sasanian coin collection in the Civico Gabinetto Numismatico of Milan. The collection consists of sixty-nine silver coins from the Sasanian period, stretching from the beginning of the reign of Ardasir I (224-240CE) to Xusraw II (590-628). Included in the collection are also two post-Sasanian coins attributed to the early period of Muslim domination in Iran, suggesting a strong Sasanian influence. The publication of the Milanese collection provides scholars with the possibility of studying five centuries of Sasanian numismatics and art history. Apart from the role of coins as primary sources for economic history, they are occasionally the only means for scholars to identify the representation of the Sasanian kings on other objects of art such as plates or seals, and even rock reliefs. This study provides an historical review of Sasanian history and an outline of the method for the study of the collection, before embarking upon a study of Sasanian numismatics and art history
