[QUOTE="e30kgk, post: 1890165, member: 57031"]I just received a coin in a deal from a user on another forum, and have a concern about it - namely that I can't find any record of it existing, or a picture to compare it to, or dimensions, or anything of the sort. Pics: [url]http://imgur.com/a/gpRBx[/url] The coin in question is an Iranian azadi, dated 1385SH (2006). Numista lists the azadi being made up to 1996. Krause lists a half azadi in 2002 and 2004, but no full azadi since 1996. The 1996 azadi (KM# 1264) seems to be the same coin. My other, more minor concern, is that the reeding on the edge is very strange. It is almost as if it's reversed. Instead of the reeding being a series of indentations into the coin, the reeding on this one appears to be a series of extremely shallow, narrow ridges, but in relief. Basically, can anyone point me to a reference saying that this coin actually exists? Even better would be a good high-res picture and some dimensions. Does anyone have a known good one of these they can check the edge on?[/QUOTE]
