| Obverse description | This Iran Cheque bears the denomination '2000000' in large numerals at upper left and lower right, with the issuer's name in Persian script (ایران چک) at upper centre. A vignette of the Tomb of Ferdowsi monument is positioned at the right, rendered in fine detail against a pale guilloche underprint. The face carries multiple handwritten entries, stamps, and an endorsement signature across the central field, consistent with a filled payment cheque instrument. |

| Comments |
Bank Refah Iran is not a central bank — it is a commercial welfare bank, established to serve workers and pensioners affiliated with the Social Security Organization. That it issued what appears to be a negotiable instrument denominated at two million rials is unusual enough to warrant caution: notes of this type from Iranian commercial banks are typically prize cheques, gift certificates, or internal transfer documents rather than circulating currency, and they do not appear in the standard Pick catalogue, hence P#0.
Without a verified specimen or auction record, the precise status of this item — commemorative, prize bond, or scrip — remains open.
