1000 Cupon

The cupon was Moldova's transitional currency, introduced after the country left the Soviet ruble zone. These notes were never intended as permanent — the cupon was a placeholder while the National Bank prepared the leu, which replaced it in November 1993 at a rate of 1000 coupons to 1 leu, making this denomination precisely the one that vanished at par conversion.

The 1993 print date of 30 April 1945 in the data is almost certainly a cataloging or data-entry error — no Moldovan cupon was printed in 1945.
