Afghanistan Collection of Royal Afghan Types &
<B>Collection of Royal Afghan Types & Dates,</B></I> this fascinating group of primarily silver types represents the coinage of the Kings of Afghanistan from 1890-1961, and consists of 50 coins ranging in grade from VG to UNC, but averaging a solid VF, and undamaged except as noted. Collections of this remote country's coins are few and far between, and this is the first that we have seen in many years. There is no local supply of collectable coins left in Afghanistan and catalog prices in the SCWC have remained unchanged for decades!
