Description: This 5 Afghani coin is a genuine coin of Afghanistan-a nickel-clad steel coin minted in 1961. It is a genuine historical rarity. It was ordered to be minted by the King of Afghanistan, Muhammed Zahir Shah, whose portrait appears on this coin. It is one of the few specimens that has survived in its original uncirculated condition--among the few hoarded before it could be destroyed or damaged by angry Islamic zealots. In the Moslem faith, coins with portraits are thought to be acts of blasphemy, specifically forbidden by Islamic law. These coins entered circulation only to be destroyed in vast quantities by angry people and few survive. This coin comes as seen in a descriptive folder with a Certificate of Authenticity.
