Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Toman - Ahmad Qajar (mule) 1324 (1906) coin from Iran is that it features a unique blend of traditional Persian motifs and modern European influences in its design. The coin's obverse side features a portrait of Ahmad Qajar, the Shah of Iran from 1848 to 1925, surrounded by intricate floral patterns and calligraphy, while the reverse side features a stylized representation of a lion and the sun, which were symbols of the Qajar dynasty. This blending of styles reflects the cultural and political influences of the time, as Iran was undergoing rapid modernization and Westernization during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
