₹500 Mahatma Gandhi New Series · 4BV 141233

This is a ₹500 note of the Mahatma Gandhi New Series, carrying the serial number 4BV 141233 — the prefix 4BV identifies the print run it came from.

The condition is stated by the seller as VF — very fine — clearly circulated but sound, with some folds and honest wear. Grading on Rare Minting is the seller’s own assessment rather than a certification by us, and the photographs above are the evidence: they are of this note, not a stock image of the type.

Read as a date, the digits of this serial spell 14-12-1933. That is what makes a note like this a gift rather than a purchase: somebody’s birthday, an anniversary, or the day a business was founded, printed on currency years before it mattered to them.

Payment for this note is held until it reaches you and the inspection window closes, so the seller is paid after delivery rather than before. If it arrives and the serial is not the one shown, or the condition is materially worse than stated, that is a claim rather than an argument.
