Obverse description Printed in red, pink, and green, the obverse carries a portrait vignette of Shah Nasr ad-Din at the right and the Imperial Coat of Arms — the Lion and Sun motif — at the left. Persian script inscriptions identify the Imperial Bank of Iran and the denomination of Two Tomans, with a notation restricting payment to Tehran. Ornate guilloche underprinting fills the field, lending a decorative framework to the overall composition.
