| 表面の説明 | Central field features the Imperial Iranian coat of arms: the Lion and Sun motif, depicting a rampant lion holding an upright sword, with a radiant sun rising behind its back and the Pahlavi Crown above. The Arabic-script legend around the upper field reads the full royal titulature of Mohammad Reza Shah Pahlavi Aryamehr, Shahanshah of Iran. Below the central device, the denomination is inscribed in both Persian (500 ریال) and Latin script (500 RIALS), with the dual dating 1350 (Solar Hijri) and 1971 (Gregorian) at the bottom. The fineness mark 900 appears in the lower right field. The entire design is encircled by a decorative border of twenty-five stylised Persepolis architectural motifs linked in a chain, commemorating the 2,500th anniversary of the founding of the Persian Empire. |

Struck to commemorate the 2,500th anniversary of the founding of the Persian Empire, this issue was part of an extraordinary — and extraordinarily expensive — state celebration ordered by Mohammad Reza Shah in October 1971. The festivities at Persepolis cost an estimated $100–$200 million, drawing heads of state from across the world while many Iranians lived in poverty. The political backlash was immediate and lasting; Ayatollah Khomeini denounced the celebrations from exile in Najaf, and the event is widely cited as a catalyzing moment in the popular resentment that fueled the 1979 revolution.
The coins from this series were sold as commemorative pieces rather than circulated, which accounts for the survival rate in uncirculated condition.
