| Additional information |
This denomination belongs to the early coinage reform Reza Shah pushed through after consolidating power following the collapse of the Qajar dynasty. The reform, implemented from 1926, decimalized and standardized Iranian coinage for the first time in a coherent national system — replacing the chaotic Qajar-era output that had suffered decades of debased silver and irregular weights.
The .900 silver standard adopted here mirrored contemporary European practice, a deliberate alignment with Western monetary norms that characterized Reza Shah's broader modernization program.
