Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Toman - Naser al-Din Qajar (Gold in Zanjan) 1293-1294 (1876-1877) coin from Iran is that it was minted during the reign of Naser al-Din Shah Qajar, who was the Shah of Iran from 1848 until his death in 1896. This coin was part of a series of commemorative coins issued during his reign to celebrate various events and achievements, such as the construction of a new railway line or the opening of a new hospital. The coin's design features an image of Naser al-Din Shah Qajar on one side and the Gold in Zanjan on the other, which is a reference to the discovery of gold deposits in the Zanjan region of Iran during his reign. The coin's mintage was limited, and it is now considered a rare and valuable collector's item among numismatists.
