On Monday, June 15, 2026, following the announcement of an agreement between Iran and the United States on signing a memorandum to end the conflict, the prices of foreign currencies and gold coins in Iran's free market fell significantly.
Websites tracking exchange rates and gold prices reported on Monday afternoon that the U.S. dollar had dropped to below 162,000 tomans, representing a decline of approximately 10,000 tomans since the announcement of the temporary agreement.
In previous days, the dollar had been trading at more than 171,000 tomans. Other foreign currencies in Iran's open market also experienced similar declines.
At the same time, the price of a gold coin was reported at around 167 million tomans, marking a decrease of approximately five million tomans compared to the previous day. This decline occurred despite the fact that gold prices in global markets had risen following the announcement of the agreement between Iran and the United States.
The prices of the U.S. dollar and gold in Iran had surged after the outbreak of the conflict, with the dollar at one point trading at nearly 190,000 tomans.
