Identification note: Exact Pick number depends on signatures/series details not fully resolved from photos; printer attribution inferred from typical contracts of the period; reverse building identification not confirmed. | The note is Afghanistan, 50 Afghanis, green, with King Mohammad Zahir Shah’s portrait at left, Da Afghanistan Bank legend, and 1342 SH law date on face; reverse shows a government building with central clock tower and open gates. These attributes match the Zahir Shah portrait series with 1342 SH law date issued circa 1963–1973. Within SCWPM this corresponds to the 50 Afghanis type (Pick-51). Exact suffix (a/b/c, etc.) depends on signature combinations, series/prefix, and other minor details not confirmed from the available evidence, so the specific subtype remains unverified.
