This specimen was lot 1304 in Sincona sale 85 (Zurich, October 2023), where it sold for 90 CHF (about US$121 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"IRAN, Reza Shah, 1304-1320 SH (1925-1941). 10 Dinars 1318 SH (1939 AD), Tehran Mint. Aluminum-Bronze. NGC MS63. Magnificent condition. From the Kian collection, auction SINCONA 49, October 2018, lot 332."

Recorded mintage: 6,195,000.
Specification: 2.65 g, aluminum bronze, 18 mm diameter.
