This specimen was lot 2934 in Sincona sale 83 (Zurich, May 2023), where it sold for 500 CHF (about US$669 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted, "IRAN, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi Shah, 1320-1358 SH (1941-1979). 1 Pahlavi 1335 SH (1956), FDC (Uncirculated)." This type, struck SH 1330-1353 during the reign of Muhammed Reza Shah (r. 1941-79), was minted to the standard of a British sovereign. It has slightly lower relief than the prior type (KM 1150) which had persistent striking weakness. The coins generally trade as bullion coins.
Recorded mintage: unknown but common.
Specification: 8.13 g, 0.900 fine gold, 0.235 troy oz AGW, this specimen 8.09 g.
Catalog reference: KM 1162, Fr-101.
