Iran 100000 Rials 2021-2022, P-163(3), UNC

Green floral ornament surrounds Khomeini, while Saadi’s tomb, trees and lines from Golestan create a composed literary landscape on the reverse.

Design & Symbolism

Obverse

Flowers accompany Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, Farsi inscriptions and the numeral 10 registration device on the obverse. The green palette and floral elements soften the otherwise formal portrait-and-denomination structure. Across the side, green tones connect the subject with the denomination and institutional inscriptions.

Reverse

Lines from Saadi’s Golestan are combined with trees and the poet’s tomb in Shiraz, accompanied by English and Farsi inscriptions and the numeral 10 registration device. The reverse reads as both a literary tribute and an architectural memorial. The green palette provides continuity between the illustration, typography and value numerals.

Collector’s Insight

For collectors, Saadi gives this 100,000-rial issue a literary character that complements the Hafez-themed denomination below it. The pairing of verse, trees and memorial architecture makes the note part of a broader modern series in which major Persian writers serve as distinct cultural anchors for different values.
