Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued during the reign of Hussain ibn Sulayman Safavi, who was the ruler of the Safavid Empire in Iran from 1694 to 1722. The Safavid Empire was known for its artistic and cultural achievements, and this coin is a reflection of that, with its intricate design and use of silver. Additionally, the coin's mintage in Yerevan, which is now the capital of Armenia, highlights the cultural and economic ties between Iran and the surrounding regions during that time.
