Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of political and economic change in Iran. The 1840s saw the rise of the Qajar dynasty, which marked the end of the Afsharid dynasty and the beginning of a new era in Iranian history. Additionally, this coin was minted during a period of economic modernization and growth, as Iran began to adopt new technologies and trade practices. The fact that it was made of copper, a relatively common metal at the time, suggests that it was intended for everyday use and circulation among the general population.
