The catalog description&lt;sup&gt;[1]&lt;/sup&gt; noted, &quot;[[Iran|IRAN]]. 1/2 Pahlavi, SH 1350 (1971). Tehran Mint. Mohammed Reza Pahlavi. NGC MS-67. Glowing with a supreme and serene golden luster, this Superb-Gem glitters with appealing allure, with this example being tied with one other for the finest certified specimen yet encapsulated by NGC.&quot; When Reza Shah seized the throne in 1925, he adopted the solar Hegira calendar, which used the Gregorian calendar but deducted 621 years. Thus, SH 1350 = 1971 AD. In 1931, the system was reformed and 100 dinars = one rial. This type, struck SH 1330-1353 during the reign of Muhammed Reza Shah (r. 1941-79), was minted to the standard of a British half sovereign. The relief was lowered in 1951 to reduce persistent striking weakness. Gold one ([[Iran SH1350 pahlavi|Fr-101]]), 2½ ([[Iran SH1348 2-1/2 pahlavi|Fr-100]]), five ([[Iran SH1340 5 pahlavi|Fr-99]]) and ten pahlavis also exist. As the pahlavi was always sold at its gold price, it had no fixed ratio to the rial. <br /> <br /> ''Recorded mintage:'' 80,000.<br /> <br /> ''Specification:'' 4.06 g, 0.900 fine gold, 19 mm diameter. <br /> <br /> ''Catalog reference:'' Fr-102; KM-1161. <br /> <br /> ''[[Bibliography|Source:]]''<br /> * Friedberg, Arthur L. and Ira S.
