| Reverse description | Printed in olive-green, the reverse is dominated by an elaborate guilloche framework with four large rosette vignettes in the corners and a central oval vignette bearing the Persian Imperial coat of arms — the Lion with sword beneath a rising sun — framed by laurel branches. The denomination numeral 50 appears in each corner, with the bank title arching across the upper portion and the denomination in words along the lower margin. |
