Centered on the Iranian Plateau between the Caspian Sea and the Persian Gulf with its mountain-ringed capital at Tehran, Iran possesses one of civilization's most influential numismatic traditions, dating from Achaemenid gold darics and silver sigloi to Parthian and Sasanian drachms. Replacing the qiran and toman in 1932, the Iranian rial (IRR) and dinar coinage features Solar Hijri dates, historic Persian architecture such as Persepolis and the Tomb of Hafez, and intricate floral calligraphy.
