Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Fat'h Ali Qajar, who was the second Shah of the Qajar dynasty in Iran. He ruled from 1797 until his death in 1834, and his reign was marked by political instability, wars with neighboring countries, and economic difficulties. Despite these challenges, the coinage of Iran during this period, including the 1 Toman "Sahebqeran" coin, reflects the rich cultural and artistic heritage of the country. The coin's design features intricate calligraphy and ornamentation, showcasing the skill and craftsmanship of the mint's engravers and artisans.
