| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse field presents the mint name and regnal year in sweeping Nasta'liq script, with the large bold characters of the mint name and date occupying the central field in high relief. The legend is framed by delicate floral and arabesque scroll ornaments in the inner field. A beaded inner circle is flanked by a plain fillet and an outer beaded border, creating a concentric decorative framework typical of Qajar gold coinage of the early nineteenth century. |

Fath Ali Shah's gold tumans are among the most politically loaded coins of the Qajar period. By 1831, Persia had already absorbed two catastrophic defeats at Russian hands — the treaties of Gulistan (1813) and Turkmenchay (1828) stripped away the Caucasian provinces and imposed a punishing indemnity of ten kurur. The Ardabil mint operated within the very region that had bled most from those losses, sitting barely a day's ride from the former frontier.
Ardabil-mint pieces of this type are significantly scarcer than Tehran or Tabriz strikes, a product of that mint's intermittent operation and limited output in the final years of Fath Ali's reign. He died in 1834.
