== Coinage == The title of Narseh on his [[Sasanian coinage|coins]] was the typical ''Mazdēsn bay Narsē šāhān šāh Ērān ud Anērān kēčihr az yazdān'' ("the Mazda-worshiping, divine Narseh, King of Kings of Iran(ians) and non-Iran(ians), whose image/brilliance is from the gods").{{sfn|Schindel|2013|p=836}}{{sfn|Shayegan|2013|p=805}} The iconography of Narseh's coins can be categorized into three phases. The first and second phases portray him wearing a [[palmette]] [[Sasanian crowns|crown]], albeit with two different hairstyles. In the third phase, he is wearing a lamellar crown along with a different hairstyle.{{sfn|Weber|2016}} <gallery> File:Coin of Narseh, obverse.jpg|[[Gold dinar]] of Narseh, phase 1.
