| Comments |
Bank Saderat Iran is a commercial bank, not the central bank — that distinction matters here. The Bank of the Islamic Republic of Iran (Bank Markazi) holds the monopoly on legal tender issuance in Iran. Saderat has never had note-issuing authority, and no 5,000,000 Rial banknote attributed to it appears in any recognized catalog. The Pick number listed as zero confirms the item is unverified against standard references.
This may be a souvenir note, a promotional item, or a misattribution. Treat any provenance claims with corresponding skepticism.
