Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique blend of traditional Persian motifs and modernist design elements. The obverse side of the coin depicts a stylized portrait of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran, while the reverse side features an intricate pattern of interlocking hexagons and a stylized representation of the Persian Empire's crest. This blend of traditional and modern design elements reflects the cultural and political tensions present in Iran during the 1970s, a time of great change and upheaval in the country's history.
