Picture of the day

A 1 rupiah banknote from the first issue of banknotes by newly formed Indonesia. Although dated 17 October 1945, the notes were not actually issued until late 1946. The legal tender obligation is arched across the front of the note, Tanda pembajaran jang sah ("A valid/legal indication of payment"). The banknote is unevenly cut, and the top and bottom of the design are not completely parallel.Banknote: Government of Indonesia; image courtesy of the National Numismatic Collection
