Brunei - 10 Ringgit Dated 2013 Reprint

This is an odd note of 10 ringgit polymer note printed with the year date of 2013. This is not the only 2013 print as the 1, 100 and 500 all dated 2013 were also issued and I have posted these in separate posts, together with the same denominations. Going forward, I will post them according to the year of issue.

 

As for this 10 ringgit, this is the reprint for the 2011 series and no reprints have been sighted since then. As for the 2011 series, it was issued to coincide with the Sultan's birthdays and again, I have posted them (1, 5 and 10 ringgit) all in a separate post. 

I have had this note for quite a while now and it is long overdue to post this on my site.
