Comment
A series of rare Patterns in gold, silver and bronze were issued in 1281 AH, but the actual machine-struck coins and medals during the reign of Naser al-Din Shah Started in 1293 AH.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern ½ Toman - Naser al-Din Shah (Pattern) 1281 (1865) from Iran is that it was minted during a time of significant political and economic change in the country. The coin was issued during the reign of Naser al-Din Shah Qajar, who was the Shah of Iran from 1848 until his death in 1896. During his reign, Iran was facing pressure from European powers and was undergoing modernization efforts, which included the introduction of new currency systems. The Pattern ½ Toman coin was likely minted as a trial or pattern coin, and its design and composition may have been influenced by European coinage of the time.
