| Reverse description | The reverse presents a central vignette of Dracula's castle set within a dense forest landscape, with bats in flight across a full moon rendered in fine line engraving and executed in dark tonal contrasts consistent with the Gothic artistic theme of the series. SPECIMEN overprints appear in multiple positions across the face of the note alongside the denomination numerals and Romanian-language inscriptions. |

This is a fantasy or novelty note — not legal tender, not issued by the National Bank of Romania, and not a commemorative under any official mandate. "Gabrisnote DAS Security Printing" is the commercial operation of Slovak designer Matej Gabris, who produces privately printed collector pieces under the guise of security-paper aesthetics. The issuing authority listed is fictitious.
Watermarking on privately produced fantasy notes is largely cosmetic — it signals collectibility, not monetary function. No catalog value in the traditional numismatic sense can be meaningfully assigned.
