POV-Ray does not allow for a textured object to be used itself in an
object-pattern. It must be "naked", so to speak.

I guess this is intended to avoid people having wrong expectations about what
the object pattern does.


BTW, instead of

you can just as well write

         object { Afghanistan_Coat_of_Arms
           scale 0.01
           color rgbft 1
           color rgbft <1, 1, 1, 0, 0>
         }
