| Aanvullende informatie |
Pattern coinage for Naser al-Din Shah was frequently produced in European mints — particularly Birmingham — as part of broader efforts to modernize Iranian currency infrastructure in the 1870s. This nickel trial piece almost certainly never entered circulation; the Iranian monetary system of the period remained anchored to silver, and nickel was not adopted for regular coinage. Whether this piece was struck as a formal presentation pattern or a speculative proposal by a mint seeking contract work is not firmly established in the literature.
