Iran ND (1986-2005) Central Bank of the Islamic Republic 2000 Rials Pick 141k Khomeini Watermark PMG 66 EPQ Gem Uncirculated

This is a certified Iran, Central Bank of the Islamic Republic ND (1986-2005) 2000 Rials note, identified by PMG as Pick# 141k and graded PMG 66 EPQ Gem Uncirculated. The holder lists serial number 90/21 605403, watermark Khomeini, and Sign. #28. The back of the PMG holder confirms Exceptional Paper Quality, with certification number 2463616-071.

The face features Persian-language Central Bank text, the 2000 Rials denomination, Islamic decorative borderwork, and a revolutionary-era gathering scene with figures holding flags and a portrait of Ayatollah Khomeini. The reverse is printed in English as Central Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran and depicts the Kaaba, one of the most important sacred sites in Islam, reinforcing the religious and ideological themes of the Islamic Republic’s banknote series.

Issued during the ND (1986-2005) period, this note belongs to Iran’s post-revolutionary monetary era, when banknote designs emphasized Islamic identity, revolutionary memory, religious architecture, and state symbolism rather than the royal portraiture of the Pahlavi period. The holder-noted Khomeini watermark is an important attribution detail for this variety and ties the note directly to the visual language of the Islamic Republic.

Certified PMG 66 EPQ Gem Uncirculated, this example offers strong preservation, original paper quality, and a clear holder attribution for the Pick 141k variety. Its 2000 Rials denomination, Khomeini watermark, Islamic Republic historical context, and Kaaba reverse make it well suited for collectors of Iranian paper money, Middle Eastern banknotes, and certified modern world currency.
