| Reverse description | The reverse field bears a multi-line Persian legend in Nastaliq script denoting the mint of issue and the Hijri date of striking. The inscription reads 'Zarb Dar al-Khalifa Tehran' (struck in Tehran, the seat of the Caliphate), accompanied by the Hijri year. A beaded border runs around the circumference of the coin, framing the calligraphic legend. The irregular, hand-struck flan is consistent with hammered production at multiple Qajar mints during the reign of Nasir al-Din Shah. |
