Denomination numeral '20' appears at lower right, with Dari and Pashto inscriptions across the middle and lower portion of the note.

Bradbury Wilkinson produced this note during a stretch of Afghan banking history that was anything but stable — the 1930s and 40s saw repeated pressure on the afghani from wartime trade disruptions and a chronic balance-of-payments problem tied to the country's dependence on karakul pelt exports. When global demand for those pelts softened, the currency felt it directly.
Pick 24 spans a seven-year window, which suggests the plates were used across multiple print runs without significant revision — typical of Bradbury Wilkinson's contract work in this period, where economy of plate production favored longevity over periodic redesign.
