Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1 Shahi Sefid coin from Iran, minted during the reign of Mohammad Ali Qajar (1907-1909), is that it was made of silver (.900) and weighed 0.69 grams. Despite its small size, the coin still maintained a high level of intricate detail in its design, including the ornate calligraphy and floral patterns that adorned its surface. This attention to detail and craftsmanship was a hallmark of the Qajar dynasty's coinage, and is a testament to the skill and artistry of the mint's engravers and craftsmen.
