Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Shahi Sefid - Moẓaffar od-Dīn Qājār 1319 (1902) coin from Iran is that it was minted during a time of great change and political upheaval in the country. The Qajar dynasty, which ruled Iran from 1789 to 1925, was in power at the time this coin was minted, and Moẓaffar od-Dīn Qājār was the Shah (king) of Iran from 1896 until his death in 1907. This coin was minted in 1902, just a few years before the Constitutional Revolution of 1906, which established a parliament and limited the power of the Shah, marking a significant turning point in Iran's history.
