Interesting fact
The 500 Afghanis coin featuring the XXV Summer Olympic Games in Barcelona 1992 - Field Hockey, minted between 1989 and 1992 in Afghanistan, is made of .999 silver and weighs 16 grams. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a time of political and social unrest in Afghanistan, with the Soviet Union withdrawing its troops from the country in 1989, and the civil war between various mujahideen groups and the communist government continuing until 1992. Despite these challenges, the coin still holds significant numismatic value and is a unique piece of Olympic memorabilia.
