| Beschrijving voorzijde | The national arms of Afghanistan appear at top centre within a circular vignette, flanked by the denomination numeral '5' at the upper corners. The face carries a large central Dari script inscription identifying the issuing authority, set against an intricate multicolour guilloche underprint. Two additional circular vignettes, one bearing an Ottoman-style tughra seal, are positioned in the lower register, with further Arabic inscriptions in the lower left and right panels. |

Afghanistan's paper currency in the 1920s operated in a climate of profound public distrust — the population preferred silver and gold, and treasury notes were frequently rejected outright in rural transactions. The short issue window of 1926–1928 reflects this friction; the notes were withdrawn as part of Amanullah Khan's broader and ultimately unsuccessful modernization program, which collapsed entirely with his abdication in January 1929.
Pick 6 is among the scarcer survivors of that series. The political instability that ended the reign also ended orderly redemption, meaning destruction records are unreliable.
