Cash banknotes

Cash banknotes were introduced for circulation by the Bank of Poland in 1828. They were printed in 1824 on thin paper in four categories corresponding to their denominations. In category A. there were blue banknotes with a value of PLN 5, in category B. there were red ones with a value of PLN 10, in category C. white banknotes with a value of PLN 50, and in class D. also white ones with a value of PLN 100. These banknotes were printed using the copperplate engraving technique. They were the first Polish banknotes printed on both sides. Few of them have survived to the present day, and all those that are left are very rare today.
