I was given this coin when I was 5 or 6 years old. Does anybody know the face value, what the coin says or the price?

The note attached:
IRAN, Qajars, Fath 'Ali Shah,
1212-1250 AH 1797-1834
AD. AR Kran (6.85 gm) of Shiraz

The date AH 1242 seems to be correct. As to Shiraz mint, you might look through a few pages here and probably find yours

I collect coins and tokens which circulated in Africa from 18th century to 2000. I sell about 7000 illustrated world coins from http://www.avscoins.com.
