Additional information

Afghanistan's coinage modernization under Zahir Shah in the 1930s drew heavily on European technical assistance, with the Kabul mint struggling to achieve consistent alloy quality in its copper-nickel output. KM#940 is known for uneven metal flow resulting in weak areas on a significant proportion of struck pieces — not a collector artifact, but a documented production limitation of the Kabul facility at this period.
