Observe Face Description: The front of the bill depicts the late King Birendra of Nepal. It also displays the royal seal of the Royal family of Nepal and a castle like structure.

Reverse Face Description: On the rear of the bill is a picture of a jaguar above a patterned bar. To the right of it is a coat of arms of the Royal Family.
Personal value: I received this bill from one of my close friends in middle school. Because he was very a recent immigrant, my friend still had many bills from Nepal and was able to give me one as a souvenir to remember him by.
Other:  These bills are no longer in circulation and Nepal no longer prints money with the King on them as the royal family has been abolished.
