I am struggling to identify this year mark on this Khosrow II, it is poorly struck/worn. If any of you can spot what year this is please let me know.

Possibly, but I think its unlikely this is year 30 since the obverse portrait looks like a younger Khosrow. I meant to upload this with the original post, but must have been an error.

That would have helped, earlier images are more crude looking than his later issues, Now that I can see the obverse I would agree with Paul.
