Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Non-circulating coin 5 Azadi (Revolution) 1358 (1979) from Iran made of Gold (.900) weighing 40.7 g is that it was minted to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the Iranian Revolution, which overthrew the monarchy and established the Islamic Republic of Iran. The coin's design features an image of the Imam Khomeini, the leader of the revolution, on one side, and the Azadi Tower, a symbol of Iranian freedom and independence, on the other. The coin's gold content and limited mintage make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists and enthusiasts of Iranian history.
