Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 2000 Dīnār - Nāṣer al-Dīn Qājār 1309 (1892) coin from Iran is that it was minted during the reign of Nāṣer al-Dīn Shah Qājār, who was the Shah of Iran from 1848 until his death in 1896. He was known for his efforts to modernize Iran and introduce Western-style reforms, and this coin reflects that effort, as it was minted in a modern, Western-style gold standard.
