For information on Iranian currency go to the country page.
You can exchange your currency in most banks for a small commission after filling out between two and five forms. If you know the exchange rate then it is a better option to visit one of the many exchange offices on Ferdosi St that begins from Imam Khomeini Square. All will give you a good rate but some might give slightly less than the official rate or claim a commission. Just say no and go to the next one.
Do not exchange your money with one of the many individuals offering to exchange along Ferdosi St. It is a lot more risky and illegal.
