Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during the reign of Mahmud Hotaki, who was the first ruler of the Hotak dynasty, which was a short-lived dynasty that ruled Iran from 1722 to 1736. Despite its short duration, the Hotak dynasty played a significant role in Iranian history, and this coin is a testament to that era.
