In 1808, the British envoy Sir Harford Jones was given a mission by the King George III to negotiate a treaty of alliance between Persia and Great Britain. A preliminary agreement was concluded in March 1809 and the definitive treaty was eventually signed on 25 November 1814. By the terms of this important document, which was specially declared to be defensive, all alliances between Persia and European nations hostile to Great Britain were made null and void, and all European armies were to be prevented from entering Persia, if hostile to Great Britain. In 1828 the British Minister, Sir John Macdonald renegotiated and modified some terms of this treaty, and it is reported that on this occasion these medals in gold and silver were offered to the dignitaries of the court.

After the conclusion of a peace treaty between Persia and Russia in 1828, a Russian mission under M. Grebaiodov was sent to Tehran by Tsar Nicholas I. The mission was received with honor, but the envoy's claim for the surrender of two Armenian women by a high-ranking court official created a riot and a mob stormed the Russian Embassy, murdering the envoy and his staff. In dismay, the Shah dispatched his grandson, Khosrow Mirza to offer the apologies of the Persian Government, which were eventually accepted. In the following year Khosrow Mirza officially visited Russia again and this extremely rare medal commemorates his visit in 1829.
