Iranian Coins
The official currency of Iran is the Rial.
We offer silver 5 Ryal and 5000 Dinar crown sized coins of Persia. As these coins were issued at a time when the country was still known as Persia, we refer to it as such, and describe these coins as Persian coins, rather than Iranian coins. Persia was renamed Iran after the Revolution of 1979, when it became the Islamic Republic of Iran. 5,000 Dinars are equivalent to 5 Krans.
