Ceylon62 The 1000lei Romanian note, as well as other notes of the period were designed by one of the most prominent Romanian painters, Nicolae Grigorescu, who is now portrayed on the 10 lei note, and used to be on the 100 000 lei note: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolae_Grigorescu

some old uniface French notes... 15 sols   10 livres   1st year of the republic I believe. 3 ruble notes from 1905, the year the Japanese defeated the Russians in the Russo-Japanese war... like the security features on the note I didn't expect to have existed then.

Hi, the mark is from a bank that the bill identified as a counterfeit. I found this very interesting and I do not saw such counterfeit bills with this Quality. France is not really my area but this bill is very nice. I collect the USA, Scotland,Northern Ireland and Germany. Of course I have a bit from Canada, the 1954 Series is a sensation.

Is there a watermark in the paper of that French note?

Hajduk The French note may well have been considered a fake mistakenly. km#153 does list your note for 1978 only as having a plain "CENT FRANCS" in the upper left corner. A subsequent printing (#154) for 1978-1979 (with the same signatures) has "CENT FRANCS" with diagonal lines within the wording. Check this site for examples of both, http://www.banknote.ws/COLLECTION/c.../FRA0153.htm

Yes there is a watermark but I think the watermark is printed on the paper. The print quality was good enough for a supermarket but not for a bank. The paper is very similar the original.

Thank you, the bill is in Gem UNC Condition. I bought him in the USA. In Europe he is much more expensive. This Falkland perfect UNC bill I got yesterday from a friend in Germany.
