The Imperial Iranian coat of arms — a lion passant holding a sword before a rising sun, surmounted by the Pahlavi crown — is set within a circular guilloche medallion at centre, flanked by denomination numerals '50' at each corner; Persian denomination text in cursive script appears to either side. The printer's imprint 'AMERICAN BANK NOTE COMPANY' runs along the lower margin, with the date rendered in Persian numerals at right. |
