[QUOTE="satootoko, post: 101228, member: 669"]Okay! The accession date is to the left of the Shah's hat. The coin issue date (SH1308 - 1929) is located at the bottom center of the coin, below the bust. The file attachment process is one of those not things which are not yet working under the software upgrade, so I can't post my edited picture of the obverse, enlarged and lightened to clearly show and mark the dates until Peter gets things squared away. 1929 was the final year of issue, with only 584,000 minted, compared to mintages of 3-4.7 million in earlier years. 2006 Krause values are $40 F, $75 VF, $100 XF and $150 Unc. It's very difficult to grade without a higher resolution picture, especially since a scan doesn't show the luster, if any, but my guess is that it's someplace in the VF to AU range. As a grandparent, I sincerely hope that I don't have to remind you to say "Thank you Grandma." :D[/QUOTE]
