About this banknote
The "Banca Națională a Moldovei" issued this 5 lei banknote in 1992 as part of Moldova’s inaugural currency series following the country's declaration of independence from the Soviet Union in 1991. This move established the Moldovan leu as the official currency, transitioning from the Soviet ruble.
The front side of the note features an image of Ștefan cel Mare, a prominent historical figure in Moldovan history, alongside the national coat of arms. The back depicts a medieval fortress, emblematic of Moldova’s architectural heritage. This note is identified by its Pick number 6 and bears the signature of L. Talmaci, the then Governor of the National Bank.
