Iran 1,000,000 Rials UNC Banknote – Pick #W165 (2020–2022)
Product Description
This Iran 1,000,000 Rials banknote (Pick #W165), commonly referred to as “100 Toman” (since 1 Toman = 10 Rials), was issued by the Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran between 2020 and 2022. It belongs to Iran’s **Transitional Series** and reflects a deliberate pairing of ancient heritage with modern economic priorities. Offered here in uncirculated (UNC) condition, it remains crisp, clean, and untouched by circulation.
The design bridges 2,500 years of Iranian history. The obverse features the Tachara Palace at Persepolis—the ceremonial capital of the Achaemenid Empire and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The reverse highlights the South Pars Gas Field, one of the world’s largest natural gas reserves and a cornerstone of Iran’s modern economy. This contrast between imperial grandeur and energy infrastructure makes the note uniquely symbolic of Iran’s dual identity.
