I found it! I guess it has to be a 5 coin proof set KM# PS3 under Iran. it was issued at $59.50 and has a 2001 book value of $115.00. There is .2409 actual silver weight (ASW) in the 25 Rials,.4818 ASW in the 50,.7227 ASW in the 75,.9636 ASW in the 100 and I.9273 in the 200 Rials. I don't have a chart on today's silver price but you can check a newspaper for London spot. That will give you an idea to it's value in silver. There seems to have been 18,100 of these sets minted. I have never seen any for sale and I get World Coin News each month,have for years and look at all the dealer ads. In order to get an idea of value you can email reisbiz@earthlink.net. Bob Reis is top notch, as a world coin dealer and writes the column "From A to Z" in World Coin News. Hope this helps

I can't tell you exactly the value of your coins.Prices change quickly.However they sound like a collectable set and wouls suggest you check ebay or a local dealer for selling prices.The sad thing usually we don't get our money back on most of these -but they are worth the amount of silver that is in them.I have Italian coins like yours to sell them would be worth about &10.00.But check in your area there may be a collector who will make a good offer.
