I like this banknote, but not sure how many were printed.

Kind of a bland note IMO. The thick security strip is cool. I also like the multi-colored "50" on the back. Overall the note is fairly monochrome (hey, like US notes, which I'm of course used to).

Was that your video? A closer-up of the vignettes on the front/back would have been nice. Good work on showing us the watermarks, I find that's not easy. Perhaps a bit lengthy. Pretty sure you could have conveyed all that in 2 min or less. Purely constructive criticism here and thanks for showing me a note I've never seen.

Nice note. These are somewhat easy to obtain, the serial number tells us at least 377,834 of them were printed, and that zero at the front tells me it's more likely to number around 10,000,000.

Most African currency printings are somewhat large, the economies there just don't support cashless transactions and bank cards to any real extent.
