YEAR 2000 ECLIPSE BANKNOTES

Romania EA/RO/0007

The year 2000, who doesn’t remember. The solar eclipse visible in Romania was a year before, in 1999. This bill was made especially for this eclipse depicting the eclipse path over Romania. The bill is a bit misleading since the amount is 2000 lei and was made in 1999 since the eclipse was the last of the millennium. 2000 Lei, back then € 0,50, is today the equivalent of around € 400.
