Obverse: the front of the banknote features the 50 talonas denomination, a composition of maple leaves, the Coat of Arms of the Republic of Lithuania (Vytis), the year 1991, and the inscription "Lietuvos Respublika". This example belongs to the "Without Counterfeit Text" variety, meaning it lacks the anti-counterfeiting warning text within the security background.
Reverse: the reverse depicts a moose, one of the largest wild mammals found in Lithuania's forests. The design is complemented by security patterns, the serial number, and the denomination.
About the banknote: the 1991 50 Talonas banknote belongs to the first series of Lithuania's temporary currency issued after the restoration of independence. This example has been certified by PMG (Paper Money Guaranty) and graded Choice Uncirculated 64, confirming an excellent uncirculated condition. The holder identifies it as Pick# 37a – Without Counterfeit Text, distinguishing it from the alternative variety with the anti-counterfeiting warning text. PMG certification guarantees the banknote's authenticity, condition, and collectible value.
