Important recommendations for buying Persian coins; Only these units are allowed to be sold

The publication of videos and narratives on social networks about the sale of fake Persian license plates has increased the concern of buyers of these products. The head of the Tehran Jewelry and Jewelry Union gave an explanation about this issue.

According to Ambassador Arjan, according to Ambassador Arjan, the release of videos and narratives on social networks about the sale of fake Persian license plates has increased the concern of the buyers of these products. Nader Bazarafshan, the head of the Tehran Jewelry and Jewelry Association, emphasizes the necessity of receiving an official invoice, paying the money to the account of the same trade unit, and keeping purchase documents to follow up on violations.

Parsian plates or the same coins that are popularly known as Parsian coins are very attractive for some people who want to buy gold and save because of the possibility of buying in lower weights. However, the difference between these products and bank coins increases the need to pay attention to the seller's license and product specifications.

In a situation where reports have been published about the supply of counterfeit products under the name of Persian coins, the buyer, in addition to checking the appearance and specifications of the license plate, must be able to prove the identity of the seller and the details of the transaction.

In this regard, Nader Bazarafshan, the head of Tehran's Gold, Jewellery, Silver and Coin Sellers and Manufacturers Union, has explained about the reports related to fake license plates of Persians, the permissible limits of exchange activities, ways to identify the authenticity of goods and how to follow up suspicious purchases.

Reports about the sale of fake Parsian license plates by some exchanges have come to the attention of the union, but no formal complaint has been registered in the union's expert commission for handling complaints.

About the published reports about the sale of fake license plates of Parsians, Bazarafshan said: The money changers' association was a branch of the union in the past, but in 2013, the central bank announced that the money changers should be under the supervision of this bank and receive a license to operate from the central bank.

He added: Some exchanges have also obtained permission from the Tehran Jewelry Union to sell coins, and they sell coins in addition to the activity of the exchange. Reports about the sale of fake Parsian license plates by some exchanges have reached the union's ears, but as far as I know, no official complaint has been filed in the union's expert commission for handling complaints.

It should be noted that there are reports that people bought from Parsian license plate exchange, but when reselling, the same unit refused to buy the product it had already sold. In some of these stories, after opening the package, the buyer realized that the product was not gold at all.

The head of Tehran Jewelry Union said: If such an incident has happened, it is considered a violation and must be followed up.

The product that is known as Parsian coin in the market is actually a Parsian license plate, and the coin that is considered to be a central bank coin is different from this product.

Emphasizing the difference between bank coins and Parsi products, Bazarafshan said: the product known as Parsi coins in the market is actually a Parsi license plate. A coin that is considered a central bank coin is different from this product. Persian plaques are made in production units like gold artifacts.

Exchanges that do not have a license to sell gold should not sell Parsi license plates

The head of the gold union added: The sale of Parsian license plates should be done in units that have a license and a gold retail order. Exchanges that do not have a license to sell gold should not sell Persian plates. Because the license to operate in the field of exchange or even the license to sell coins does not automatically mean that all gold products are allowed to be sold.

This union official emphasized: some coin sales units have a license to retail coins and can operate in the same framework; But the sale of Parsi license plates requires a license for the sale of gold. The supply of these products by a unit that does not have such a license is outside the scope of its trade union activity.

People should buy gold from gold shops, coins from licensed coin shops, and Persian license plates from authorized gold sales units.

Referring to the necessity of buying from licensed units, Bazarafshan stated: People should know to buy gold from gold shops, coins from licensed coin shops, and Parsian license plates from authorized gold sales units. Jewelry should also be purchased from a unit that has a license related to this activity.

When people buy, they should check the license of the trade union

This union official added: People should check the license of the union unit when buying. If the customer asks for more assurance, the trade union is obliged to show him its license. Having a license related to the same type of activity is one of the things that the buyer should check before the transaction.

Payment for the purchase of gold and coins must be made through the official means of the same trade union, and the buyer should also keep the transaction receipt

Emphasizing the importance of payment documentation, the head of the Tehran Jewelry and Jewelry Association said: "People should make sure that the transaction of buying coins, gold artifacts, Persian plates, jewelry and other products in this area is done through the account or card reader of the same trade unit."

When buying, people should make sure that the account to which the money is deposited is related to the same trade union

Bazarafshan emphasized: If people are going to pay for purchases, they should make sure that the account to which the money is deposited belongs to the same trade union.

He added: If the money is deposited into an unrelated account or the payment is made through another route, it may become more difficult to follow up the transaction in the event of a dispute. Therefore, it is better to do all the payment procedures through the official means of the same trade union and the buyer should keep the transaction receipt as well.

The official invoice is the most important document for tracking the purchase of Parsian license plates

Bazarafshan said about the necessity of receiving an invoice: People must receive an official invoice to buy coins, Persian plates, gold and jewelry artifacts. The invoice must have the seal of the trade union and the details of the goods and the description of the transaction must be included in it.

He continued: If a person has bought fake Parsian license plates and has an invoice, it will be much easier to pursue the matter through the union. If the person does not have an invoice, but his bank transaction shows that he paid the money to the same trade union, it is still possible to check and follow up; Of course, provided that the relevant unit is identified and purchase documents are available.

If the seller refuses to issue the invoice, it is a violation

Referring to the requirements for submitting invoices, this trade union official stated: The seller must submit a sales invoice with the necessary specifications according to trade union regulations. If the seller refuses to issue the invoice, it is a violation, the customer can report the matter to be investigated within the framework of the regulations.

He added: People should not buy without an invoice; Because if it is later determined that the product is fake or there is a dispute in the transaction, the existence of the invoice makes the process much easier. This issue is not only specific to Persian license plates and is also important for purchasing gold, coin and jewelry artifacts.

If a person has transaction receipts or documentation of payments to the union, they should contact the union

About the actions of buyers who do not have invoices, but think they have bought fake Parsian license plates, Bazarafshan said: If a person has a transaction receipt or documentation of payment to a trade union, he should refer to the union. If it is found that the relevant unit has a license from the union or operates in the fields covered by it, and the buyer provides documents about the purchase and payment, the matter can be followed up.

If a person has made a purchase without an invoice, it is better to keep the bank receipt, seller details, trade union information and any other evidence of the transaction in his possession and refer to the union for follow-up.

The head of the gold union emphasized: If a person has made a purchase without an invoice, it is better to keep the bank receipt, seller's details, trade union information and any other evidence of the transaction in his possession and refer to the union for follow-up. Of course, the result of the investigation depends on the available documents and verification of the seller's profile.

It is necessary to check the hologram, weight and grade of the Parsi license plate

It should be noted that, along with the recommendations of the head of the Tehran Gold, Jewellery, Silver and Coin Sellers and Manufacturers Union, in the published guide on identifying the original Parsian license plate, it is emphasized on checking the 3D security hologram, the health of the vacuum packaging, the weight of the product, the 750 karat included on the packaging, the validity of the manufacturer's code, and the receipt of an official invoice with the seller's seal. These items can help the buyer in the initial investigation, but in case of doubt about the authenticity of the goods, it is important to have a professional evaluation and follow up with trade routes.

Therefore, buyers should check the seller's relevant license and product specifications before paying, pay the money to the same trade unit, and keep the official invoice and transaction receipt with them.
