Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Fat'h Ali Qajar, who was the second Shah of the Qajar dynasty in Iran. He ruled from 1797 until his death in 1834, and his reign was marked by political instability and foreign intervention. Despite these challenges, Fat'h Ali Qajar was able to implement some significant reforms, including the creation of a new currency system, which led to the minting of this coin.
