1. This coin was not issued for use by a country in Europe.
2. This coin was not issued for use by a country in the Americas.
3. This coin was issued for use by a country in Asia.
4. This coin was not around in AD 1901.
5. This coin was around in AD 1955.
6. The country that issued this coin is not an island.
7. The population of the country that issued this coin is less than 50M.
8. This coin was not around in AD 1930.
Hint #1: now is probably a good time to mention that this coin is not dated using the Gregorian Calendar so I may not be able to give you a single AD year of manufacture. With that said, you have already bracketed this coin's date to a 25 year window so you are in pretty good shape I think.
9. The population of the country that issued this coin is more than 10M.
10. The country that issued this coin is Afghanistan. Dang it @craftworker, you are good.
11. I can't find a single coin of Afghanistan shown on numista issued between 1931 and 1955 with Gregorian dates.
12. This coin is not bronze.

ooops! Fixed it. You know that it wouldn't be one of my challenges without a mistake or two along the way.  "If you climb a good tree, you get a push."
