From your poor quality pictures I can read;کار خانه کابل Kar Khanah e Kabul, 1312. I did not see the seal maybe it is there.

It is not 1895. Right now is 1396, so take 1312 out of that -> that is 84 years ago. Correct age is 1934, not 1895.

It is 1439 Hijri Qamari (Lunar), but it is 1396 Hijri Shamshi (Solar) Afghanistan and Iran go by the Solar calendar, so

OK, I stand corrected. Too many different calendars.... I spent 10 yrs. in Saudi, so I was familiar with the Arabic version... this converter says 1933 tho, not 1934

close enough
Three first months of Gregorian calendar falls in one year and the remaining nine in the next. The new year starts with the first day of Spring, around March 20-22, think Zodiac Calendar.
