| Obverse description | Uniformed bust of Naser al-Din Shah Qajar facing slightly left, wearing the distinctive tall Qajar crown adorned with a jeweled aigrette at the front. The Shah is depicted in military dress with decorative epaulettes and medal insignia visible on the chest. The portrait is rendered in a naturalistic style characteristic of late Qajar coinage produced under European influence. Arabic inscription appears in the lower field below the bust, reading دو تومان (Two Tomans), denoting the denomination. A fine beaded border encircles the design. |
