Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 500 Dinar - Naser al-Din Qajar (Pattern) 1293 (1876) from Iran made of Silver (.900) is that it was minted during the reign of Naser al-Din Shah Qajar, who was the Shah of Iran from 1848 until his death in 1896. This coin was part of a series of pattern coins minted during his reign, which were intended to be used as standardized currency across the country. However, due to various reasons, including political instability and lack of resources, these pattern coins were never widely circulated and are now highly sought after by collectors.
