I did some browsing in shops here in Afghanistan and came across one shop with piles of old coins. Too bad I don't know anything about world coins. For 5 dollars I picked out a Pakistani 1948 quarter rupee
Pakistani 1948 half rupee
india 1994 rupee (intl yr of the family)
2 afghani 1961 king zahir 5 pc
some old afghani coin with eagle arms size of penny

All modern coins, the sort of which are likely to be kicking around in Afghanistan. It sounds legit. Beware of folks selling ancient coins over there; they are all either fake, or looted. Either way, you don't really want anything to do with them.
