The Iranian financial market commenced its morning session on Monday, September 7, 2026, with a noticeable stability in the currency exchange rates, while gold and cryptocurrency sectors exhibited strong performance. The US Dollar maintained its position, with a sell rate of 226,700 Toman and a buy rate of 225,358 Toman. Other major currencies also showed consistent figures, with the Euro selling at 263,200 Toman and the British Pound at 306,250 Toman, indicating a relatively calm start for the foreign exchange market.
In the precious metals market, gold prices continued their upward trend. The Emami coin, a key indicator for the Iranian gold market, was priced at a significant 234,000,000 Toman. The Azadi coin followed closely at 229,000,000 Toman, and the Nim Seke at 119,000,000 Toman. For individual investors and jewelers, the price of 18-karat gold per gram reached 23,355,187 Toman. These domestic prices are underpinned by a robust international gold market, where the gold ounce was trading at $4,412.20 USD, suggesting sustained global demand for the safe-haven asset.
The cryptocurrency market also presented a strong picture, with leading digital assets trading at high valuations. Bitcoin (BTC) was observed at $79,840, continuing its impressive run. Ethereum (ETH), the second-largest cryptocurrency, traded at $2,511.58. The stablecoin USDT, often used as a proxy for the dollar in crypto transactions, was priced at 226,700 Toman, perfectly mirroring the USD sell rate and confirming its peg. This stability in USDT indicates a healthy flow between traditional and digital currencies.
The morning's figures across currency, gold, and crypto markets suggest a blend of stability and strong asset performance. While the Toman-USD exchange rate held steady, the significant valuations in gold and cryptocurrencies point towards continued investor interest in these alternative assets, potentially driven by both local economic factors and broader global market sentiments.
