| Obverse description | Central vignette is the Shah-do-Shamshira Mosque (Mosque of the King of Two Swords) in Kabul, a distinctive two-storey yellow structure built during the reign of Amanullah Khan (1919–1929) and modelled after the Ortaköy Mosque in Istanbul, rendered in an unusual Afghan Baroque style with Italian decorative stucco. The seal of Da Afghanistan Bank appears above the mosque vignette. Inscriptions in Dari and Pashto identify the issuing authority and denomination. |
