| Reverse description | The Shir-o-Khorshid (Lion and Sun) device occupies the central field, depicting a lion passant to the left, its right forepaw raised and brandishing an upright sword, with a radiant rising sun emerging from behind its back. The motif serves as the royal emblem of the Qajar dynasty and is rendered in a bold, if somewhat crude, engraving style consistent with provincial hammered coinage. The denomination legend appears in Arabic script below or surrounding the central device. The field is plain, with no additional border ornamentation on this face. |
