Interesting fact
The 50 Afghanis coin from Afghanistan, issued in 1995, features a unique design that showcases the country's rich cultural heritage. On the obverse side of the coin, there is an image of a traditional Afghan hound, which is a breed of dog that has been native to the region for thousands of years. The reverse side of the coin features a stunning representation of the famous Buddhas of Bamiyan, which were ancient statues of the Buddha that were carved into the side of a cliff in the Bamiyan Valley of Afghanistan.
