| Reverse description | Central device depicts the traditional Imperial Iranian emblem: a rampant lion passant to the left, holding an upright sword in its right forepaw, set against a radiant rising sun with emanating rays above its back. The Imperial Pahlavi crown is positioned above the central device at the top of the field. The entire composition is encircled by a wreath of olive and oak branches joined at the base. Below the lion, a horizontal ground line separates the device from the Persian denomination legend 'یک ریال' (One Rial) inscribed in the lower field. A dentilated inner border frames the design. |
