Thank you Ram, you have a wonderful gold coin. Most Fath 'Ali Shah gold Tomans are decorated with floral ornaments and rosettes; yours is just of the plain type. Figleaf has posted a similar gold toman on September 1, 2015 as per this link http://www.worldofcoins.eu/forum/index.php/topic,32906.msg207443.html#msg207443
