Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and political upheaval in Iran. The Moẓaffar od-Dīn Qājār dynasty was the last ruling dynasty of Iran, and this coin was minted during the reign of Moẓaffar od-Dīn Shah Qājār, who ruled from 1896 to 1907. This period saw significant political and social reforms, including the creation of a new constitution and the establishment of a parliament. The coin itself is a reflection of the economic and cultural changes that were taking place in Iran at the time, as it was made of gold and had a unique design that reflected the country's rich cultural heritage.
