Old banknotes and relevant facts
Prior to 2002, Afghanistan used various banknote designs, including those issued during the reign of Mohammed Zahir Shah (1933-1973) and those of the communist period. An important milestone was the introduction of the Afghani in 1925, replacing the Afghan rupee. During the civil conflict of the 1990s, different versions of banknotes issued by rival factions circulated simultaneously, leading to considerable currency confusion.
