Any details would be much appreciated , validity , rarity , worth. Error found on 500 Lei Romania 2005 Polymer banknote , in use. Thank you all! Report this Post to the Staff

walk2dwater Pillar of the Community Canada 2574 Posts	Posted 10/01/2024 4:58 pm There is a big difference between a dramatic (in your face) "error" & poor production quality or serial number issues (due to a little ink). If the note had huge globs of ink smeared across the serial # or some of the digits - it may qualify. Your example, on the other hand, would definitely meet QC inspection but not be classified anything but "spender" both where it was issued & under most collector's consideration (IMO).
