| Obverse description | Central field bears a multi-line Persian inscription in Naskh script enclosed within a beaded inner circle, commemorating the return of Shah Nāṣer al-Dīn from his European journey in the year 1307 AH. The inscription reads 'بجشن مقدم، شاهنشاهی از سفر فرنگ ۱۳۰۷', celebrating the auspicious arrival of the Shahanshah. The central device is framed by a wreath of oak and olive branches tied with a ribbon at the base. A Qajar imperial crown surmounts the composition at the top of the wreath. The overall design is rendered in the refined engraving style characteristic of late Qajar commemorative coinage. |
