There is a break/fracture on obverse legend; so the word "ن" can be seen double.

Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Tuman coin from Iran, made of Gold and weighing 6.12g, is that it was issued during the reign of Fat'h Ali Qajar (Kashan) in the early 19th century (1799-1803). This coin was a standard circulation coin during that time and is a rare and valuable collector's item today.
