Enhance your collection with this rare 1 Rupee coin from the Emirate of Afghanistan, struck in AH1304 (1887) under Emir Abdur Rahman Khan. Minted at the Heaton Mint in Birmingham, this piece (KM-805) is a pattern coin featuring a AH1304/1303 overdate, making it a unique and collectible specimen. The intricate design highlights the craftsmanship of the late 19th-century British mint, reflecting the historical relationship between Afghanistan and the British Empire. A must-have for advanced collectors seeking scarce Afghan coins and pattern coins.
This coin likely saw some circulation and was used as a jewelry piece at one point, before the loop that was once on the coin was carefully removed. The pattern coin also has the distinction of being the first machine-struck coin in Afghan history.
