Very nice note  Looks as if it is unc or aunc. Also, very low serial number. (B is the year of printing, 29 the position on the sheet, then comes the actual ''serial number''). Congrats.

Interesting history behind this non-issued note. From Numista: These notes were printed in the People's Republic of China for use in South Vietnam after liberation by the National Liberation Front. They were never issued, because they were captured during a joint US / South Vietnam military operation into Cambodia. Relatively few survived in uncirculated condition. Their date was recently changed from 1963 to 1968 after a Chinese book described the notes as being printed in 1968. This indicates they were intended for the second money conversion in South Vietnam, which never happened.

Tried to find an animal banknote thread to put this in so it'll go here for now. Beautiful 1972 Vietnam 500 #272;ô#768;ng banknote featuring a Bengal tiger.

Staying with the tiger theme, also just received a 1996-2006 10 Rupees Mahatma Gandhi series note. I'll have to find a better condition note. The tiger has a rhino & an elephant for company.

The 1972 Vietnam 500 Dong would fit in the Women on Banknotes category. The watermark has a woman.

  I have had the 5 and 10 for ages but finally filled the whole where the 20 should go. .i was tempted into it by a discount and I figured I might regret not buying it later if I turned it down.
