Interesting fact

The 25 Pul coin from the Kingdom of Afghanistan, which features Muhammed Nadir Shah, was the first coin to be issued with a portrait of a king on it. This was a significant departure from the traditional Islamic coinage design, which typically featured only scriptural inscriptions. The inclusion of a portrait on the coin was seen as a symbol of the modernization and secularization efforts of Nadir Shah's government.
