Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a portrait of Moḥammad Alī Qājār, the Shah of Iran from 1907 to 1909, on one side, and an image of the Iranian coat of arms on the other. The coat of arms includes a lion holding a sword and a shield with the word "Allah" written in Arabic script. This design was used on many Iranian coins during this period and is a symbol of the country's rich history and culture.
