March New Member Romania 7 Posts	Posted 07/06/2013 10:36 am From my collection : Romania - 10 Bani Front side Back side The Smallest Banknote in the World . Guinness Worlds Records 2008 put this Romania 10 bani issued by Romania Ministry of Finance in 1917 as the worlds smallest national banknote . Romania 10 bani banknote printed area measures 27.5 mm x 38 mm. The banknote color is green and you can see the year issued with the word Romania. The note shows King Ferdinand (1914-1927)who succeeded his uncle on the latter's death (Carol I of Romania died without surviving issue) as King of Romania on 10 October 1914, reigning until his own death on 20 July 1927.
