Authentic Iran 1,000,000 Rials / 100 Tomans Pick W166 in UNC condition, representing the 2023 variety of this modern transitional Iran Cheque. Individually identified for collectors completing the W166 catalogue position or comparing Iranian million-rial issues.
Collectors of modern Iranian paper money often encounter several
million-rial issues that appear similar when identified only by value.
However, differences in Pick number, year, design, signature and security
layout give each issue its own catalogue position. This
Iran 1,000,000 Rials / 100 Tomans Pick W166 is offered as
one individually identified 2023 issue for collectors who need the exact
variety rather than an unspecified million-rial cheque.
The note is supplied in UNC (Uncirculated) condition and
belongs to Iran’s modern transitional denomination series. Its printed
values combine 1,000,000 Rials with
100 Tomans, making the dual denomination one of the most
useful visual identifiers when organizing recent Iranian issues.
This single-note listing is suitable for catalogue-based collecting,
comparison with earlier million-rial varieties, replacement of a circulated
example, or addition to a modern Middle Eastern banknote inventory. The
serial numbers supplied may differ from those shown in the product images.
Issuer: Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Type: Iran Cheque from the modern transitional
denomination series.
Material and size: Paper issue measuring approximately
156 × 71 mm.
The defining feature of this issue is its transitional value presentation.
The note displays the full denomination of
1,000,000 Iranian Rials together with the simplified
100 Tomans value.
For collectors, this dual denomination is not merely an alternative way of
describing the note. It is an important identification point that separates
the transitional series from earlier Iranian issues carrying only the
conventional Rial presentation.
When cataloguing the note, record both values together:
1,000,000 Rials / 100 Tomans. This prevents confusion with
earlier one-million-Rial cheques that use different designs, dimensions,
Pick references or denomination layouts.
A collector should identify this issue using several characteristics
together. The printed denomination is important, but the Pick reference,
front and back designs, serial-number arrangement and issue variety provide
a more reliable catalogue match.
The W166 reference separates this note from the earlier W165
million-rial issue and from later high-denomination transitional notes.
Record the complete Pick number together with the year or signature
variety when maintaining an album checklist or dealer inventory.
Both denomination systems appear as part of the note’s modern
transitional presentation.
This pairing is one of the fastest ways to distinguish the issue from
older Iranian cheques using only the full Rial value.
The printed wording identifies the issue as an Iran Cheque, although
collectors and dealers commonly group it with modern Iranian banknotes
and paper money.
Using both “Iran Cheque” and “banknote” in the catalogue record can
make the issue easier to locate without changing its formal
classification.
The front displays the Shrine of Fatima Masumeh in Qom as the principal
identifying subject. The design is combined with denomination numerals,
Central Bank inscriptions, serial information and the Iran Cheque
designation.
For collector comparison, examine the building outline, fine background
printing, denomination positions and relationship between the serial
numbers and the main design.
The reverse features the South Pars gas field alongside the English
denomination wording and Iran Cheque identification.
The reverse is particularly useful when separating W166 from other
million-rial varieties whose front values may appear similar at first
glance.
Never identify a high-denomination Iranian issue from only one side.
Compare the complete front-and-back design combination with the Pick
reference before assigning it to an album position.
This method is especially useful when photographs, dealer titles or
marketplace listings omit the complete catalogue information.
This product is intended for collectors building the modern transitional
Iranian series by denomination and Pick number. Instead of purchasing any
note labelled “one million Rials,” the buyer receives the specific W166
type with its 100-Toman presentation and 2023 variety.
For a developing collection, W166 can establish the million-rial position
before the collector adds the newer 2,000,000, 5,000,000 and
10,000,000-Rial transitional issues. For an advanced collection, it can sit
beside W165 to demonstrate how two notes sharing the same broad value can
differ in design, dimensions and catalogue classification.
Dealers may also catalogue the issue separately from generic Iranian cheque
stock. Listing the Pick number, dual denomination and issue year helps buyers
understand exactly which note they are ordering and reduces confusion between
similar high-value products.
The note is offered in UNC (Uncirculated) condition. This
designation is intended for a banknote that has not acquired circulation
wear and retains the clean presentation expected from an unused example.
The surface should remain clean and free from circulation folds,
writing, stains or prolonged wallet handling.
Corners should remain defined, while edges should not show the softening
or general wear associated with circulation.
The note should retain its natural paper structure and should not be
washed, pressed, trimmed, laminated or otherwise altered.
Minor characteristics created during printing, counting, packaging or
original storage should be evaluated separately from actual circulation
wear.
Collectors should examine several security and printing elements together.
No single visible feature should replace a complete comparison of the note’s
design, paper, catalogue details and serial layout.
The watermark relates to the entrance of the Fatima Masumeh mosque and
shrine complex in Qom. Examine it in transmitted light without folding
or pressing the note.
An integrated security strip appears within the paper and should be
assessed together with the watermark and printed design.
The issue uses two separately positioned serial numbers with different
numeral formats and print colors. Check their alignment, clarity and
consistency with the surrounding design.
Review the detailed background patterns, inscriptions, denomination
numerals and transitions between printed areas for clear registration.
The front and reverse use different combinations of Persian and Latin
text. These inscriptions support identification when comparing genuine
catalogue examples.
Confirm the denomination, Pick number, design combination, dimensions,
serial arrangement and security elements as one complete identification
profile.
Pick W165 and Pick W166 share the broad 1,000,000-Rial denomination, but
they should not be treated as duplicate catalogue entries. They use
different identifying designs and belong in separate album positions.
Place the note in an individual, collector-safe PVC-free banknote sleeve
large enough to hold its 156 × 71 mm format without pressure on the corners
or long edges.
Avoid folding, laminating, trimming or attaching adhesive labels directly
to the paper. Store the sleeved note away from prolonged sunlight, high
humidity and excessive heat.
Record the denomination, Pick number, issue variety and serial number on a
separate album insert. This keeps the catalogue information with the note
without marking the banknote itself.
Complete the order using the payment methods currently presented during
checkout. The note is prepared in protective packaging suitable for
collectible paper money.
Dispatch: Orders are normally prepared within 1–3 business
days. Standard or registered delivery options depend on the destination and
the shipping services displayed at checkout.
The stock quantity displayed on this page represents individual Pick W166
notes. When several units are ordered, each supplied note may carry a
different serial number while retaining the same denomination, issue type
and listed condition.
