After one year of debate on "To publish or not to publish 50000 Rials bill", they have published it last week. Some economists argued "By publishing this, you will raise the inflation"; But I think when the price of a house is doubled during the last year, it is logical to publish new bills. Maybe the more logical act would be eliminating some zeros from this weak Rial.

Anyway, This is our 50000 Rial bill which equals to less than 5 Euros.



For me, this piece of paper is more like a Political/Ideological Placard than a bill. It shows a map of Iran with the "Persian Gulf" written on it. In addition it has an Nuclear Energy sign and a saying of Prophet Mohammad about knowledge on it. I bet the other side includes a photo of Khomeini.
