Unknown Coin: ARABIC WRITING ONLY. PLEASE HELP! [solved]

,

Hi there folks! Could some kind person please identify this very cool coin for me? I know nothing about it apart from it measures 25mm across. I've tried to identify it myself but I'm getting nowhere.

Your coin has a denomination of 50 and a date of 1360. Putting these numbers into the coin search at Numista identified this as a Iran, 50 rials, 1981, commemorating oil and agriculture, KM#1237

N#1686

Thanks a million, times, Seeker55! Now I can enter this coin into my notebook (I still like paper). Ka pai [good / well done]. Ehara koe i a ia! [Thank heavens you were there, lucky we have you]. Kia ora! [an all-purpose greeting wishing good health] Cheers from New Zealand, Arthur Yapp

You're very welcome, and welcome to Numista!

Next time try to identify by image in the search, please?

I loved learning geography as a kid.  

The map was instantly recognizable 😉.

Yes, I too loved geography, but I was looking for an island which threw me crook. 🙄 Thanks for your ms. AY

Just to add another possibility for the future, the free smart phone apps Coinoscope and Maktun are good at identifying relatively modern coins. With best wishes, Jon
