Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the royal visit of Nāṣer al-Dīn Qājār, the Shah of Iran, to Europe in 1890. The coin's design features an image of the Shah on the obverse side, and a portrait of the Queen of Belgium, Marie Henriette, on the reverse side, signifying the diplomatic ties between the two countries. This coin is a rare and valuable collector's item, with only a limited number minted, making it a unique piece of numismatic history.
