Lion and Sun flag

Uncommon card · No. 81886

The Lion and Sun flag is a historic Iranian national and opposition flag consisting of a green–white–red horizontal tricolour charged with the Lion and Sun emblem. It served as the state flag of Iran from 1907 until the 1979 Islamic Revolution, after which it was strictly banned. Since then, the flag has had no official status but continues to be used as a historical and political symbol, particularly among diaspora Iranians and opposition movements.
