Hello!
This coin seems to be Persian with a lion on the front and Persian on the back. On the bottom part of the circle I think I make out two numbers - 1 and 2.

Weight is 8.6g and diameter is 20.6mm

Can you please help me out! Would really appreciate your input.

Thank you!

It's well a persian coin: a civic copper struck under Muhammad Shah Qajar.
It reads only "falus Iran فلوس ایران " (likely from teheran mint), dated 125x AH
Zeno : #194837 & 194838

Appreciate it - I am a fan of the varieties of lions on them!
