Boran "Daughter of the Sasanian King Khosrau II"Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Sasanian Empire's Standard circulation coin Drachm - Boran (type I/1) (630-631) is that it was made of silver (.900) and weighed 3.96 g. Despite being a standard circulation coin, it was crafted with a high level of precision and beauty, reflecting the advanced minting techniques and artistic skills of the Sasanian Empire during that time.
