Hello again everyone. I've got a coin or token that I need some help to identify. I can read arabic numerals but not words so I'm having trouble with this one. I think I can see a 2 on one side and a 9 on the other but it isn't enough info to go off of so I'm coming to the experts for help. Any info would be appreciated. Thank you!

It looks like a New Year token from Iran. The only example of one that looks just like it that I could find is found here, and the inscription in first picture is May it be Blessed (see here). It seems wedding and New Year tokens can have the same obverse, but I could not find a wedding token with the same reverse.

EDIT: apparently that first link is not allowed.
