Due to my chronic incompetence at reading squiggles, I must beg the indulgence of members and humbly ask for ID help for said coins.

(my favorite of the bunch)

May I present Khrusru II, King of Kings of Iran and Non-Iran (what a great title for a king, people don't have style like that,anymore)...

ID help insofar as mints and years, if possible.  That's the downside of that particular dealer.  There's good deals, but the descriptions are barebones.

I've been listening to the So You Think You Can rule Persia? podcast.

Coin 1: AH mint??

Coin 2 A?

Coin 3 LAM?

I use Tom Mallon's guide at http://grifterrec.org/coins/sasania/sas_mint/sas_mint_table.html when I get stuck.

The first and third are AW.

The second one confuses me.  It might be AHM, because it reminds me of lettering on a coin where I called in an expert for help, and was told it was AHM.

The Parthian is Ecbatana [= Hamadān, Iran]

Thanks!

So that I can have the ID tags ready for when the coins arrive, I'll beg your indulgence with the dates.

Top one: couldn't even guess, looks like all hash marks to me.

middle 15? (based off the end squiggle)

bottom: 33?

Aside from Sasanian, I rarely ask for ID help.  Many of these numbers and letters look so similar, and they're often a bit different than the tables.

My date guesses are probably terribly wrong.  It's a bit frustrating not to read these well.
