Like his two previous predecessors—
Hormizd I Kushanshah and Hormizd II Kushanshah—Peroz II had the same group of coins minted during his reign, with gold
dinars and copper
drachms provided from the main Kushano-Sasanian base of
Tukharistan.[4] However, Peroz II is called "the Great Kushan King" and not the "Kushan King of Kings" on his coins, hence renouncing their claim of kingship over the
Sasanian Empire.[4] Since the reign of Hormizd I Kushanshah, copper drachms were minted with the names of two local governors, Meze and Kavad.[4] This was also continued under Peroz II.[4]
In
Gandhara, Peroz II issued copper coins with his characteristic "bull horns crown".[5] However, he was the last of the Kushano-Sasanian rulers to issue such coins in Gandhara.[5] After that point, the area was occupied by
Shapur II, who issued his own coinage from
Kabul.[4][6][5]
Peroz II was succeeded by
Varahran Kushanshah in Tukharistan, while the Sasanian
King of Kings Shapur II (
r. 309–379) incorporated Gandhara and Kabul into his own domains.[4][6][5]
