This specimen was lot 1574 in Sincona sale 59 (Zurich, October 2019), where it sold for 6,500 CHF (about US$7,872 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted, "IRAN, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi Shah, 1320-1358 SH (1941-1979). 10 Pahlavi 1358 SH (1979). NGC MS61." The shah was overthrown in 1979 and he died the next year. This massive coin, a reflection of the shah's megalomania, was also struck MS2537 (1978). The other Iranian coins listed below for 1979 were struck by the revolutionaries.
