Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great change and upheaval in Iran. The 1211 (1796) date on the coin corresponds to the end of the Zand dynasty and the beginning of the Qajar dynasty, which marked a significant shift in the country's political and social landscape. Despite this turmoil, the coin still maintains a high level of craftsmanship and beauty, showcasing the skill and artistry of the mint's craftsmen during this time period.
