Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 500 Dīnār - Moẓaffar od-Dīn Qājār 1323 (1905) coin from Iran is that it was minted during a time of significant political and social change in the country. The coin was issued during the reign of Moẓaffar od-Dīn Qājār, who was the Shah of Iran from 1896 until his death in 1907. This period saw the introduction of modernizing reforms in Iran, including the creation of a new currency system, the expansion of education and healthcare, and the development of infrastructure such as roads and railways. Despite these efforts, the Qajar dynasty, which had ruled Iran since 1789, was facing increasing challenges and opposition, ultimately leading to its overthrow in the 1920s.
