| Reverse description | The reverse carries a repetition of the mustachioed male portrait vignette to the left, with the nominal value "7.000 EURO" appearing in the upper left and in the lower centre. A serial number is printed below the portrait. The overall layout mirrors the obverse, consistent with the promotional fantasy note format issued by Reader's Digest Romania. |

Reader's Digest issued promotional "fantasy" banknotes in several European markets during the mid-2000s as part of direct-mail sweepstakes campaigns — envelopes arrived with a note that appeared, at first glance, convincingly real. Romania's version was denominated in euros despite the country not having adopted the euro currency, a deliberate choice to suggest a prize of pan-European scale. The 7,000 denomination has no basis in any actual currency system and was chosen purely for psychological impact.
These are not legal tender and never were. Collectible mainly as advertising ephemera.
