Interesting fact

The 1 Fals coin from the Maragheh mint, which was issued anonymously, features a unique design on its reverse side. Instead of the usual depiction of a Persian king or a mythological creature, this coin features a stylized representation of a cypress tree, which is a symbol of longevity and renewal in Persian culture. This design choice was likely made to reflect the cultural and artistic influences of the Maragheh region, which was known for its rich history and cultural heritage.
