Bank Keshavarzi is Iran's state agricultural bank, founded in 1933 and restructured repeatedly under both the Pahlavi and post-revolutionary governments. By 2000, issuing high-denomination certificates or special payment instruments at the two-million-rial level reflected the severe inflationary pressure that had eroded the rial's purchasing power throughout the 1990s — a process accelerated by sanctions, the aftermath of the Iran-Iraq War, and chronic oil revenue volatility.
The Pick number is unassigned, which suggests this piece sits outside the mainstream catalog — possibly a prize bond, savings certificate, or internal banking instrument rather than circulating currency proper. Without confirmed catalog documentation, precise attribution remains open.
