| Obverse description | Lion passant to left in the central field, with a radiant sun rising over its back, the solar disc rendered with a stylized human face. The lion's body is depicted in a folk artistic style typical of Safavid-era provincial copper coinage, with dot-cluster ornaments flanking the figure. A beaded border encircles the design, and the overall composition reflects the iconic Lion-and-Sun motif used as an emblem of Iranian sovereignty. |
