| Reverse description | Central field bears the imperial arms of Qajar Iran: a passant lion facing left, holding an upright sword in its right forepaw, with a radiant rising sun behind its back. A Kiani crown surmounts the entire composition above. The central device is encircled by a wreath composed of olive branches on the left and oak branches on the right, tied at the base. The denomination legend in Persian script appears in the lower portion of the field beneath the lion, all within a beaded border. |

| Additional information |
Mozaffar od-Din Shah signed the constitutional decree in August 1906, just months before his death in January 1907, making this issue one of the last struck under his authority and one of the first to circulate in a constitutionalist Iran. The timing is not incidental — the Constitutional Revolution forced the convocation of the first Majlis that same year, fundamentally restructuring the Qajar state even as its coinage continued unchanged.
KM#981 is the final type for this denomination under Mozaffar od-Din, superseded almost immediately by issues naming his successor Mohammad Ali Shah.
