Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the coin is that it was minted during the reign of Ibrahim Afshar, who was a prominent ruler of the Afsharid dynasty in Iran. The Afsharid dynasty was known for its military conquests and cultural achievements, and this coin is a testament to the economic and monetary reforms that were implemented during that time. The fact that it is made of silver and weighs 4.85 grams also speaks to the attention to detail and craftsmanship that went into its production.
