What's the date (roughly)?

This coin listed by Valentine is dated 1270 AH (in time of Nasir al-din Shah Qajar).

I have two of these, both dated 1270 H (below the inscription on the reverse).

Interesting post, thank you

It is one of the smaller iranian civic coins, all with the same date, it seems.
