Iran ND (1982) Bank Markazi 200 Rials Pick 136b TDLR Arms Watermark PMG 67 EPQ Superb Gem Uncirculated

This is a certified Iran, Bank Markazi ND (1982) 200 Rials note, identified by PMG as Pick# 136b and graded PMG 67 EPQ Superb Gem Unc. The holder lists serial number 30/12 713838, printer TDLR, watermark Arms, and Sign. #23. The back of the PMG holder confirms Exceptional Paper Quality, with certification number 2463597-072.

The face features Persian-language Bank Markazi Iran text, the 200 Rials denomination, mosque architecture, floral ornament, and Islamic geometric styling. The reverse is printed with Islamic Republic of Iran Bank Markazi Iran in English and shows a rural agricultural labor scene with workers and a tractor, reflecting the post-revolutionary emphasis on national reconstruction, agriculture, and public service themes.

Issued as ND (1982), this note belongs to the early Islamic Republic period, after Iranian banknote design moved away from Pahlavi royal portraiture and toward religious architecture, state symbolism, and social-development imagery. The type is historically important as part of Iran’s monetary transition following the 1979 revolution, when currency became a visible expression of the new republic’s political and cultural identity.

Certified PMG 67 EPQ Superb Gem Unc, this example offers high-grade preservation, original paper quality, and a precise holder attribution for the Pick 136b variety. Its early Islamic Republic context, TDLR printer attribution, Arms watermark, and strong certified grade make it well suited for collectors of Iranian paper money, Middle Eastern banknotes, and modern world currency.
