Aanvullende informatie

Naser al-Din Shah's reign saw repeated attempts to rationalize Iran's chaotic coinage system, though the results were inconsistent across mints in Tehran, Tabriz, Isfahan, and elsewhere. The qiran-based decimal system introduced in the 1820s under his predecessor was still being enforced unevenly by 1858, meaning fractional denominations like this half-qiran were struck to varying standards depending on which provincial mint produced them. Die workmanship at secondary mints was notoriously irregular, and weight compliance across the fractional silver series was loosely observed at best.
