The lion stands upon a decorative platform flanked by a wreath composed of olive branches to the left and oak branches to the right, tied at the base with a floral ornament. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border, with additional foliate and floral elements filling the lower field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Nāṣer al-Dīn Shāh ruled Iran for nearly fifty years — the longest reign of any Qajar monarch — before being assassinated at the Shah Abdol Azim shrine in May 1896, just two years after this coin was struck. By 1894 his treasury was severely strained by concessions sold to European powers, including the notorious 1872 Reuter Concession and its messy aftermath. The 5 Qiran was the principal silver denomination of the Qajar monetary system and saw heavy commercial use across the bazaar economy.
KM#915 is date-sensitive — collectors distinguish issues by the Iranian solar year struck on the coin, with some dates considerably scarcer than others.
