Afghanistan's brief experiment with the "Caboulie" — a transliteration of Kabuli, the local designation distinguishing Afghan currency from Indian rupees circulating across the border — reflects a monetary system still asserting its own identity against British Indian commercial dominance in the region. The dual denomination naming on this note was a practical necessity, not an affectation.
P#14 dates to the reign of Amanullah Khan, whose aggressive modernization program collapsed in 1929 when tribal revolt forced his abdication. Notes from this precise window are historically compressed into roughly twelve months of functional government before the currency system effectively broke down with the administration that issued it.
