Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of great turmoil in Afghanistan. The country was facing political instability and military conflicts, and the coin's minting was likely a way for the government to assert its authority and establish a sense of normalcy. Despite these challenges, the coin has survived and remains a valuable piece of Afghanistan's numismatic history.
