| Additional information |
The 1 Rial of 1337 SH falls during a period when Iran's monetary system was being quietly stabilized following the CIA and MI6-backed coup of 1953 that removed Prime Minister Mosaddegh and reinstated full authority to the Shah. Small-denomination coinage from this window often circulated aggressively in the bazaar economy, which makes unmolested examples harder to find than mintage figures alone would suggest.
