Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Shahi Sefid - Ahmad Qājār 1328-1330 (1910-1912) coin from Iran is that it was minted during a time of great political and social change in the country. The Ahmad Qājār dynasty, which ruled Iran from 1789 to 1925, was the last Iranian dynasty and was marked by political instability, corruption, and foreign intervention. The coin's mintage period, 1910-1912, was a particularly tumultuous time, as Iran was facing pressure from European powers and undergoing significant political and social reforms. Despite these challenges, the coin remains a valuable piece of Iran's history and a testament to the country's rich cultural heritage.
