Additional information

Pattern coinage from the Imperial Iranian Mint occupies an awkward documentary space — produced for internal approval purposes, rarely formally released, and almost never systematically recorded. The undated format here likely reflects experimental work rather than an intended circulation issue, possibly tied to one of several recoinage programs the mint undertook following currency reforms in the Pahlavi period.

Bronze was not the production metal for quarter Pahlavi gold coinage, which places this firmly in the pattern category rather than as a struck-to-circulation piece.
