Iran Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi Definitive Series

Iran · 1951 · 10 Dinar

This definitive stamp features a left-facing portrait of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran. The design is simple and elegant, with the Shah's image set against a solid color background, framed by decorative elements and the country's name in both Persian and French scripts.
