| Specimen Notes |

let other banks, and treasuries know about newly
issued notes, that are about to be released. They may
released in
sets or as individual notes.
Many times theses notes will have all zero serial
numbers. To keep them form being used as actual currency (
they are not
legal tender, nor are they redeemable ) they will perforate or
over-print
the notes with Specimen or similar wording in their country's
language. Some of the wording currently used is as
follows:

The quantity and distribution is

specimen notes is normally very limited making them more

produce
greater quantities of specimen notes, and the serial number is
preceded
by the Maltese cross.
