One interesting fact about the 1 Toman - Naser al-Din Qajar 1296 (1879) coin from Iran is that it features a unique blend of traditional Persian motifs and European influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features a portrait of Naser al-Din Qajar, the Shah of Iran from 1848 to 1896, surrounded by intricate floral patterns and Arabic script.
