Question 1st Jewelry and 1st Unknown Foreign Coin

The sun was still up so I couldn't resist going back out again after already finding 13 coins. This time a nice haul including my 1st jewelry and 1st foreign coin which I think is Middle Eastern. The ring is a little kids ring, wouldn't even go but 1/2 way down my pinkie finger. So this haul was 12 pennies, 7 dimes, 4 quarters, and 1 nickel. I've attached pics, if anyone knows what kinda coin I found, I'd be glad to know what it is.

Cheers.

WOW!! Great job, my friend. You're outshining me. That practice is really paying off, huh? You musta been jumpin' up and down when you found your first ring. How'd it feel?

Can't wait to see what that coin is worth. That's awesome, kid!!!

Your Foreign Coin is a "DINAR" from IRAN. It is of a later date than my book covers and is probably from around 1981 to around 1994.
