正面描述 An Imperial crown occupies the central field, rendered in a stylized, bold relief characteristic of hammered coinage. The crown features arched bands adorned with pellets and a fleur-de-lis finial rising from the apex. A border of pellets frames the design around the irregular flan. The overall composition is unlettered, relying solely on the heraldic crown as the emblem of British authority during the occupation.

附加信息

Qandahar fell to General Donald Stewart's forces in April 1879, and the British occupying administration struck this falus to facilitate local commerce and signal administrative control — a practical assertion of authority as much as a monetary one. The Second Anglo-Afghan War had fractured Kabul's grip on the region, and Qandahar briefly operated under a British-backed wali before the disastrous Battle of Maiwand in July 1880 forced a reassessment of the entire occupation strategy.

British withdrawal from Qandahar was completed by April 1881, making this among the shortest-lived occupation coinages of the Victorian era.
