AFGHANI (afḡānī), the unit of currency in modern Afghanistan. Throughout the 19th century, Afghanistan’s unit of currency was the rupee (rūpya). In Qandahār, each rupee was equal to one-half miskal (2.3 gr.) pure silver or 36 paisa (paysa), and in Kabul each rupee was equal to one miskal pure silver or 60 paisa (or folūs). Each Kabuli rupee equaled two qerān, three ʿabbāsī (one ʿabbāsī being equal to 20 paisa), or twelve šāhī (one šāhī being equal to five paisa). Paisas were made of copper or zinc, whereas coins of higher value were minted in silver. . Prior to the introduction of the Afghani in 1925, the nation was using the Afghan rupee and other Indian currencies that were adopted in 1891. At that time, the afghani was divided into 100 pul and one amani was equal to 20 afghani. The rupee coins were used up until their complete removal in 1978. Before this removal, the maiden afghani banknotes were introduced in 1935. .

Issued along with the Afghani was the bronze and brass pul, the billon pul which was worth 20 pul, the silver Afghani, and the gold amani.
