    This silver coin is listed as Afghanistan 1 Rupee. What time period would it be and is this accurate? s-l400 (1).jpg s-l400 (3).jpg

    I think I see a "1222" date on there. That would be about 1807 AD.
    Some coins have the date of the start of the ruler's reign rather than
    the actual minting date. I didn't find anything quite right from Afghanistan
    or Mughal India so far. Do you have a size and weight? The closest I found
    with that date was a rupee from Herat mint, but it's only vaguely similar.

    Good luck!

    It does look like the Shah Shuja coin.
