Reverse description The central vignette presents an intaglio view of the Arch of Qala-e-Bost at Lashkargah, the monumental Ghaznavid triumphal arch rendered in fine engraved detail with surrounding rocky escarpment and riverine landscape. The bank title in Pashto script is set across the upper portion, with the denomination '1000 AFGHANIS' at upper left in Latin script and the Arabic-script value at centre-right. A decorative foliate panel occupies the left border, and a multicolour guilloche underprint in pink and blue tones fills the background.
