Prior to decimalisation in 1932, these coins and currencies were used, and some of these terms still have wide usage in Iranian languages and proverbs: Old currencyĭarius the Great ( Achaemenid King of Kings)Īlso known as: 10,000 Dinar, 200 Shahi, 100 Mahmoudi (Sannar), 50 Abbasi, 20 Naderi, 10 Qiran, 8 RialĪlso known as: 200 Dinar, 4 Shahi, 2 Mahmoudi/SannarĪlso known as: 500 Dinar, 10 Shahi, 5 Mahmoudi (Sannar), 2 1/2 AbbasiĪlso known as: 1,000 Dinar, 20 Shahi, 10 Mahmoudi (Sannar), 5 Abbasi, 2 NaderiĪlso known as: 1,250 Dinar, 25 Shahi, 12 1/2 Mahmoudi (Sannar), 6 1/4 Abbasi, 2 1/2 Naderi, 1 1/4 Qiranīetween 20, the rate of inflation has been fluctuating around 14%.

The rial replaced the qiran at par in 1932, subdivided into 100 new dinars. In 1825, the rial ceased to be issued, with the qiran subdivided into 20 shahi or 1,000 dinars and was worth one-tenth of a toman, being issued as part of a decimal system. The rial was first introduced in 1798 as a coin worth 1,250 dinars or one-eighth of a toman. This change is expected to take place between 20.
