About this banknote
The Banka e Shtetit Shqiptar issued the 10 Lekë banknote in 1976, following Albania's official renaming to the People's Socialist Republic. This series replaced the previous 1964 issue to reflect the country's new designation.
The obverse features a woman operating a cotton spinning frame, symbolizing the nation's industrial sector. The reverse displays a group of people near the Palace of Culture, with a portrait of Naim Frashëri, a prominent Albanian poet, at the upper right. The banknote measures 135 x 75 mm and has a watermark of the bank's name encircling a radiant star.
