| 裏面の説明 | Arabic inscription in Naskh script occupies the central field, arranged in two or three horizontal lines across the flan. A vertical stroke or dividing line bisects the legend, a feature typical of Kabul falus coinage of this type. A row of small pellets or dots is visible along the left margin of the coin. The overall design is struck on an irregular, hand-cut planchet consistent with hammered Afghan copper issues of the period. |

Kabul issued its own copper coinage well into the nineteenth century as a semi-autonomous municipal currency, largely independent of whatever power nominally controlled Afghanistan at the time — Durrani, Barakzai, or briefly Sikh. The plated construction of this type suggests a mint economy cutting costs or managing metal shortages, a recurring problem for a landlocked city whose copper supply depended on overland trade routes through the Hindu Kush.
