Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Falus coin is that it was issued during the reign of Sultan Sulayman I Safavi, who was the fourth Safavid king of Iran and ruled from 1666 to 1694. The coin features an inscription in Persian that reads "Sulayman, the just king, the king of kings, the shadow of God on earth" which reflects the monarch's powerful position and influence during that time.
