| Reverse description | Central device depicts the Imperial Iranian lion-and-sun emblem: a passant lion facing left, holding an upright sword in its right forepaw, with a radiant sun rising behind its back. The Taj crown surmounts the sun above the lion. The device is framed by a wreath of olive branches to the left and oak branches to the right, tied with a ribbon at the base. The denomination legend in Arabic script appears in the lower field below the lion, and notably bears an additional dot above the word 'دو', distinguishing this piece as a pattern variety. A beaded border frames the entire reverse. |
