2003 North Macedonia 500 Denari issued banknote DA8148021 featuring the Golden Death Mask motif, graded PMG 67 EPQ

North Macedonia 2003 - 500 Denari Issued Note DA8148021 Golden Death Mask (Pick 21a)

Its sculptural form translates effectively into engraved linework and serves both as the principal vignette and as the basis for the watermark embedded within the banknote paper. Read more →
