Details
Beware of forgeries and/or reprints of most Iran stamps between the years 1870-1925. The stated values are for genuine stamps. Collectors should be aware that forgeries of many issues outnumber genuine examples by factors of 10 or 20 to one. Failing specialized knowledge on the part of the collector, these stamps should be examined or authenticated by acknowledged experts before purchase.
Beware: this example is probably already a reprint.
