Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Rial - Fat'h Ali Qajar (Tehran) ND (1797-1834) coin from Iran is that it features a unique blend of Islamic and European influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features a stylized representation of the Lion and Sun symbol, which was a common motif in Qajar-era art and architecture, while the reverse side features a stylized depiction of the Iranian crown, surrounded by intricate floral patterns. This blend of traditional Persian motifs with European-style crown iconography reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred between Iran and Europe during the Qajar period.
