Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2 Tumân coin from Iran made of Gold (.900) weighing 5.7488 g is that it was minted during the reign of Moẓaffar od-Dīn Qājār, who was the Shah of Iran from 1896 until his death in 1907. This coin was minted in 1904, which was a significant year for Iran as it marked the beginning of the country's modernization efforts, including the construction of railroads, schools, and hospitals. The coin's design features the bust of Moẓaffar od-Dīn Qājār on one side and the Iranian coat of arms on the other, symbolizing the country's rich history and cultural heritage.
