"In 1952, aluminium 25 pul and nickel-clad-steel 50 pul were introduced, followed by aluminium 2 and 5 Afghani in 1958 and nickel-clad-steel 1, 2 and 5 Afghani in 1963" ... 1963 is not supported by any information I can find. http://worldcoingallery.com/countries/Afghan.php shows an issue of 1, 2, and 5 Afghani in 1961. Many other sources show a number of coins with a date of 1961 (either SH 1340 on the 1 and 2, or AH 1381 on the 5). I'm changing the date and citing a numismatic source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mcl ( talk • contribs) 14:17, 17 April 2013 (UTC)
Article should probably address that the Afghani gov't and bank use Af and Afs as the currency symbol in English and that even in Arabic the current unicode symbol is off. — LlywelynII 02:47, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
I've heard a lot about the coins being issued but have seen none? Enlil Ninlil 06:07, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
Is there a 10,000 Afghani Banknote? Enlil Ninlil 05:23, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
Why the article is named as "Afghan afghani"? There is only one currency in the world which is named as "afghani", there is no need to put an "Afghan" before it. It is not like dollar, franc, rupees or other currencies. I suggest to rename the article to the old name as afghani (currency).- Ariana310 08:38, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
Our favourite website references (
[1] and
[2]) both give the date 1927 for the introduction of the afghani but the coins were clearly introduced in 1925, which is why I've put 1925 in the article. If 1927 is correct, an explanation of this apparent contradiction is needed.

The article says
But in what year? I found that the paragraph was added in 2003. But judging from the timeline of currency reform, it could well refer to 2002. So which one is it? -- ChoChoPK (球球PK) ( talk | contrib) 02:59, 27 August 2007 (UTC)
Why the move back to Afghanistani? According to List of adjectival forms of place names and Afghanistan, the demonym is Afghan. Not that I'm saying that wikipedia is necessarily right. Do you have a source? Note that there are 3 Afghan(istani) currencies: this one, Afghan rupee, and Afghan abasi. Whatever is decided, all three should match. Ingrid 01:54, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
(undent)Ok I have asked Nightstallion(who made the change) to comment and he has decided to let the people conversing here and over at Afghanistan handle it. As such, I will make the change to Afghan afghani, Afghan rupee, and Afghan abasi in one days time if there are no more comments. — Cronholm 144 00:06, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
