| Additional information |
Nāṣer al-Dīn Shāh's reign saw repeated attempts to rationalize Iran's chaotic coinage system, and this 1865 pattern was part of that broader modernization effort — one that never fully succeeded during his lifetime. The Imperial Mint in Tehran was restructured multiple times under European technical advisors throughout the 1860s, yet consistent output remained elusive.
Pattern issues from this period rarely entered circulation, surviving instead in small numbers through court presentation or mint records.
