500 KROONI

Issued: 1996

Hologram featuring a swallow and the value '500'. A new hand-engraved portrait of Carl Robert Jakobson. A windowed thread with small text reading '500/EP'. The thread appears as a row of small silver dashes on the front surface of the note, but when the note is held up to the light it can be seen as a continuous line. When the note is held up to the light, printed areas on the back of the note fill unprinted areas on the front of the note to form the value '500'. Silver ink has been incorporated into the note. New colour tints have been used in these areas. New signatures and date.
