Interesting fact

The 10 Shahi coin from Iran, minted in 1935 during the reign of Reza Pahlavi, was the first coin to feature the image of a Persian king since the Arab invasion of Persia in the 7th century. This coin marked a significant departure from the traditional Islamic coinage design, which typically featured religious symbols and inscriptions. The use of the king's image on the coin was seen as a symbol of Iran's shift towards modernity and secularism.
