Comment

On October 26, the coronation ceremony of Shah Muhammed Rizza Pahlawi, the King of Kings, took place in Teheran amid great splendour. His 27 year reign, marked by a lack of bloodshed, is known as the "White Revolution".
His coronation was an expression of his success in promoting revolutionary changes within the economic and social structure of Iran and thereby raising the level of the Iranian people to one of the most progressive nations and to restoring his country to the greatness it once occupied in the region. The medal minted for the occasion reflects the achievements of the "White Revolution".

The issue was for the Iranian Household exclusively.
