Extremely rare mint.
Interesting fact
The Abbasi - Abbas III (Maragheh) 1146 (1733) coin from Iran is notable for its unique design, which features a stylized lion and sun motif on one side, and an inscription in Persian on the other. The lion and sun symbolism was commonly used in Safavid-era coins, representing the king's power and the radiant light of justice. The inscription on the coin includes the name of the ruler, Abbas III, and the year of minting, 1146 AH (1733 AD). This coin is a rare example of the coinage produced during the Safavid dynasty, which ruled Iran from 1501 to 1736, and is highly sought after by collectors and historians.
