Unique ₹ 500 Note: Often, people have some strange superstitions about money. Sometimes, someone feels that a note or coin is ‘lucky’ for them, and they never want to give it to anyone else. At the same time, sometimes something is seen on a note or coin that people get surprised by and keep it with themselves, considering it a ‘lucky charm’. But a person got such a rare note that he was stunned to see it, and instead of keeping it with himself, he started ‘trading’ that note. He posted the picture of the note on social media and asked people how much money he could get in exchange for it. This whole incident shows how a small coincidence made a common note special.

A unique ₹ 500 note went viral

There is a group on the social media platform Reddit, r/indiasocial. Recently, a person has posted a picture of a ₹500 note in this group. This note is special because the same number is written on it several times, and the sizes are also different. The person said that he got this ₹500 note from somewhere. The background of the picture may be blurred, but looking at the things behind it, it seems that this is a picture of a shop. In such a situation, we guess that the person is either a shopkeeper or has gone to buy something at that shop.

What is so special about this note

The specialty of this ₹500 note is that the number ‘7’ is written seven times below the note, and it is written in small to big sizes. The note is real, only the numbers are surprising. It may just be a coincidence that the number ‘7’ is written seven times together, but the person is taking advantage of this coincidence. He is trying to sell this note. People have given their responses after seeing the note.

Social media stir

This picture has received more than 9 thousand upvotes, i.e., likes, and many people have given their reaction by commenting.

A user said that he can give ₹ 1500 for it. This shows that there is a kind of demand in the market for such unique notes.

At the same time, many people have shared pictures of their notes, in which similar special types of numbers have been seen written. This shows that such ‘coincidental’ notes are rare, but they exist.

Another user said that this may be a rare note, but no one would want to pay a lot for it. However, some collectors are willing to pay a good price for such ‘error notes’ or notes with special numbers.

Do notes with ‘fancy numbers’ have any value

Sequences of some special numbers on bank notes are called ‘fancy numbers’. These may include:

Consecutive digits in the serial number (e.g., 777777)

Palindromic numbers – which are the same forward and backward, e.g., 123321)

Numbers containing birth dates or other important dates

First or last numbers like 000001, 1000000

And, as in this case, a particular pattern of numbers

The price of such notes depends on their rarity, condition, and the collector’s interest. The RBI does not put such ‘fancy number’ notes in a special category, but they can fetch a good price in the private market. This ₹500 note could also fall in the same category, where the number ‘7’ appearing seven times makes it a ‘fancy’ or ‘rare coincidence’ note.
