| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central cartouche bearing the royal titulature in multiple lines of Arabic calligraphy, reading 'السّلطان صاحبقران ناصرالدین شاه قاجار طهران'. The cartouche is surmounted by a small crown and enclosed within a wreath of laurel or olive branches tied at the base, framing the entire design. The lettering is executed in a bold Naskh script with decorative flourishes. The field within the wreath is recessed, giving prominence to the inscriptions. The overall composition is formal and heraldic, consistent with Qajar dynastic coinage conventions of the late nineteenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nāṣer al-Dīn Shāh ruled Iran for nearly fifty years — the longest reign of any Qājār monarch — before being assassinated at the shrine of Shah Abdol-Azim in May 1896, just two years after this piece was struck. The 1 Tumân denomination sat at the top of the gold coinage hierarchy in everyday practical terms, the 5 Tumân being largely ceremonial. By the 1890s the Iranian treasury was under severe strain, partly from the concessions Nāṣer al-Dīn had sold to foreign interests, most notoriously the 1890 Régie tobacco concession, which triggered a nationwide boycott and forced its cancellation the following year.
