Frequently asked questions
What periods of Iranian banknotes are represented in this shop’s catalog?
This Iran category spans dated material from 1954 through 2009, together with notes listed under broader date ranges such as 1974/9, 1982/2002, 1986/2005 and 2004/5. It also includes an undated, or ND, 500-rial note cataloged as Pick 124b. The selection therefore covers several decades and multiple catalog series, but it should be read as this shop’s catalog rather than a complete survey of every Iranian banknote issue.
Which denominations and Pick references appear in the Iran category?
The catalog represents rial denominations from 10 through 20,000, including 10, 20, 50, 100, 200, 500, 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, 10,000 and 20,000 rials. Pick references range from P67 and P71 through later references such as P147a, P147c and P150Aa. Several references have lettered subtypes, including P100a1, P134c, P136a–c, P138f and P138j. These examples describe the shop’s Iran category, not the full national catalog.
How can I distinguish Iranian banknote variants with the same denomination and date?
Use the complete Pick reference and any signature code rather than denomination and date alone. For example, the 1982 200-rial notes are represented as P136a with S21, P136b with S23 and P136c with S31. Likewise, 1992 1,000-rial notes appear as P143a with S25 and P143b with S27. These suffixes and signature identifiers distinguish cataloged variants that might otherwise look similar in a basic denomination-and-date list.
What do codes such as S21, S27 and S31 mean in these Iran listings?
In this shop’s catalog, codes beginning with “S” identify signature varieties recorded for particular notes. They can separate variants within the same Pick family: the 1985 100-rial group includes P140a S21, P140c S23, P140e S26 and P140g S31. Signature codes also occur on other denominations, including P147a S30 and P147c S32 for 20,000 rials. Collectors should compare the full Pick subtype and signature code when identifying a note.
What should a buyer check before selecting an Iran banknote from this category?
Check the denomination, stated date or date range, complete Pick reference, signature code and grade shown in the listing. Most records in this category are described as UNC, while P101b, a 50-rial variety with Signature 15, is described as F. Many listings also state that images are for reference and indicate that the banknote number shown may not match the supplied note. Buyers should therefore rely on the listing specifications rather than expecting the pictured serial number.
Why are there so many different 100-rial references in this Iran catalog?
The 100-rial denomination forms a notable multi-period group in the shop’s catalog. Examples include P67 dated 1954, P102c from 1974/9, P108 dated 1976, P132 dated 1981, P135 dated 1982, and several 1985 P140 variants. The P140 group is further differentiated by lettered subtypes and signature codes. This makes the denomination useful for collecting by date, Pick reference or signature variety without implying that the category documents every 100-rial note issued by Iran.
