Not a banknote at all, but a Dutch novelty or educational play item designed to resemble the Netherlands' 1000 Gulden denomination. These imitatie-bankbiljetten were produced commercially — most commonly as props, joke gifts, or children's play currency — and circulated freely as printed ephemera rather than monetary instruments.
Dutch law prohibited faithful reproduction of genuine notes, so manufacturers typically altered coloring, reduced detail, or added overprinted text to keep them clearly outside counterfeiting statutes.
