An Afghan money trader carries stacks of old Afghanis to exchange for new banknotes, at the central bank in Kabul, October 7, 2002. The newly-designed currency was distributed on Monday, and authorities hope the larger denominations of the new banknotes will boost economic growth and make small transactions that now require stacks of bills easier.
