I just got this coin with a group of coins I ordered online. Any ideas on where it's from?

The writing looks like one of the coins I have from Jordan (Asia)...

My persian is rusty, but I believe it's 2001, or Islamic year 1422.

The date is on the bottom of the first pic. 1377 in your case. Numista claims that matches 1998.

Also note the rial symbol: ﷼ This is also a good indicator that a coin is from Iran.

I knew it had to be
250 'something or others', suspectly Iranian.

Many, many years ago, a nine year old boy educated me, by scratching the numbers 1 to 10 in Arabic into the sand on the southeren shore of the Caspian Sea, at a place called
Babolshar.

That is how I learned to count 1 to 10 in Arabic.

Brings back memories for me!
