Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Qiran - Fatḥ Alī Qājār (Type E; Tuysirkan) 1241 (1826) coin from Iran is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and European design elements. The obverse side of the coin depicts a stylized representation of the Persian king, Fatḥ Alī Qājār, wearing a crown and a long beard, while the reverse side features a rendition of the Lion and Sun emblem, which was a common motif in Iranian coinage during this period. This blending of styles reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred between Iran and Europe during the 19th century.
