FIRST BULGARIAN BANKNOTE BRIEFLY DISPLAYED

On June 17, 2005, the Sofia News Agency reported:
"The first Bulgarian banknote ever printed was shown briefly
in the town of Veliko Tarnovo, media reported.

The BGN 20 bill drew much attention during an exhibition
of the Bulgarian National Bank (BNB).

That was the first time for the banknote to be taken away
from the town of Gabrovo, where it is being kept at the
local History Museum.

The bill, originally printed in Russia, was valid from 1885
to 1907.

It was displayed in Veliko Tarnovo's Regional History
Museum for five hours only."
