| This magnificent ancient silver coin is over 1400 years old! Khosru II, ruler of Iran and Mesopotamia from 591 to 625 AD, is immortalized on this 1400 year-old silver coin. This ancient Sassanian Dynasty coin served as the model for coinage throughout Medieval Europe. Khosru II is remembered for attacking the city of Jerusalem in about 600AD and stealing the cross on which Christ was crucified. This coin comes encapsulated with a presentation folder telling the story of its history. Certificate of authenticity. A wonderful piece of history to hold in your hand. |
