History:

The Afghan Afghani has had a complex history due to various political and economic changes in Afghanistan. The currency has been in use in different forms since the early 20th century.

Following the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979 and the subsequent civil wars, the currency's value and stability were greatly affected.

The current version of the Afghan Afghani (AFN) was introduced in 2003, following the fall of the Taliban regime.
