Hello Owen,
is there any difference to the 2018 version, other than Date/signature? I am just curious why it received a new number B243a, and not B238c.
It appears to be mostly a signature/date change, but I don’t have the note itself to examine more closely. It has been assigned a new catalog number so that all denominations are represented in the new family of notes.
Hi, are there any specific difference with the previous issue ?? (signs and date apart)
GRACIAS
