Where & when
What's on the note
Front: The Temple of San Jerónimo, a colonial-era church in Mexico City. The Templo de San Jerónimo was part of a former convent complex, founded in the 16th century and associated with Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, one of Mexico's most celebrated literary figures of the colonial period. The building represents Mexico's rich colonial architectural heritage.
Back: Stephen III of Moldavia (known as Stephen the Great, 1433–1504), Prince of Moldavia who ruled from 1457 to 1504. He is one of the most celebrated rulers in Romanian and Moldovan history, renowned for his military victories against the Ottoman Empire, his extensive church-building program (founding over 40 monasteries and churches), and his defense of Christian Europe. The back also bears the text 'REPUBLICA MOLDOVA' with the year 1994 and denomination '1 UN LEU' with serial number A.0011, indicating this is actually a Moldovan 1 Leu note, not a Mexican 200 Pesos note.

Background & history
CRITICAL IDENTIFICATION CORRECTION: Despite the front bearing 'BANCO DE MÉXICO' and '200 DOSCIENTOS PESOS', the back image shows a completely different banknote—a 1994 Moldovan 1 Leu note featuring Stephen the Great. This is a mismatched pair. The front appears to be from a Mexican 200 Pesos note (likely from the 1980s–1990s era based on design style, depicting the Temple of San Jerónimo). The back is definitively from Moldova's first post-independence currency series issued in 1994, following Moldova's independence from the Soviet Union in 1991. The Moldovan Leu replaced the Moldovan Cupon at a rate of 1 Leu = 1000 Cupon. The serial number A.0011 suggests this is an extremely early printing from the first series.
