Reverse description The reverse features a multi-line commemorative Arabic inscription arranged across the central field within a wreath border, recording the occasion of the royal visit and banquet hosted by the directors of the bank at the Tehran Mint on the fifteenth of Shawwal 1308 AH. The calligraphic text is rendered in a formal Naskh script and fills the field in horizontal registers. A decorative foliate wreath encircles the inscription, following the inner rim of the coin. The reverse bears no portraiture, relying entirely on the epigraphic composition to convey its commemorative significance.
