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 to 1834 and his reign saw significant political and economic changes in Iran, including the introduction of new currency and the modernization of the country's infrastructure. This coin, which was minted in Tehran between 1826 and 1832, is a testament to the economic and cultural developments that took place during his rule.
