Iranian wedding gift tokens are surprisingly common, and to be found even over here, and many different ones exist. I suppose sadly so many Iranian people had to flee their country and took away such small souvenires. A new thread about them comes up here a few times every year.

Does anyone know how such a token may have been used?
Or in general, what exactly is a “wedding token” ?
