Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Nasser al-Din Shah Qajar, who was the Shah of Iran from 1848 until his death in 1896. He was known for his efforts to modernize Iran and introduce Western-style reforms, and this coin may have been part of those efforts. Additionally, the fact that it is made of gold and weighs 3.45 grams suggests that it may have been a valuable and significant coin in its time.
