Interesting fact

The 5 Pul coin from the Kingdom of Afghanistan, which features Muhammed Nadir Shah, was the first coin to bear the image of a Afghan king. This was a significant departure from the previous coins that had been issued under British rule, which featured the image of the British monarch. The introduction of this coin marked a new era of independence and self-determination for Afghanistan.
