| Obverse description | Central field bears a Persian inscription naming the issuing authority and denomination, enclosed within a wreath composed of intertwined olive and oak branches. The date in Persian numerals (۱۲۹۷) is divided by the lower portion of the wreath, serving as a decorative base. The legend reads the titles and name of Naser ad-Din Shah Qajar alongside the mint name Tehran and the denomination of five thousand dinars, all rendered in the nastaliq calligraphic style. The overall composition is formal and symmetrical, consistent with Qajar-era milled coinage. |
