AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Interesting and diverse collection of 14 Romanian banknotes, covering several important periods of Romania’s 20th-century monetary history.

The lot offers an attractive journey through Romanian paper money, from early historical issues to the Socialist Republic period and the colourful post-communist banknotes issued by the National Bank of Romania.

One of the most interesting pieces in the collection is an early 2 Lei banknote of the National Bank of Romania, with the date 17 July 1920 clearly visible on the reverse. The note features elaborate early 20th-century engraving, the Romanian coat of arms and allegorical decorative elements.

The lot also includes an old 25 Bani issue of Banca Generală Română, together with an early 1 Leu National Bank of Romania note.

The collection continues with a representative group from the Socialist Republic of Romania, including:

1 Leu
5 Lei
10 Lei
25 Lei
50 Lei
100 Lei

These notes feature characteristic Romanian socialist-era imagery, including agriculture, industry, architecture and historical themes.

The later National Bank of Romania issues include:

200 Lei
500 Lei
1,000 Lei
10,000 Lei
50,000 Lei

Together, the banknotes illustrate the remarkable evolution of Romanian currency design throughout the 20th century, from traditional engraved notes to the increasingly colourful and sophisticated issues of the 1990s and 2000 period.

Condition

The banknotes are in various circulated conditions.

The older notes show significant signs of circulation, including folds, creases, staining, edge wear, small tears and other age-related imperfections. The early 2 Lei note has particularly visible circulation wear and edge damage.

The later banknotes are generally better preserved, although they may also show folds and signs of previous circulation.

No professional grading has been assigned. Please carefully examine all photographs to make your own assessment of the condition. The photographs form an integral part of the description.

All banknotes shown are included in the sale and will be sold together as one lot.
