₹100 Mahatma Gandhi New Series · 3MN 090247

This is a ₹100 note of the Mahatma Gandhi New Series, carrying the serial number 3MN 090247 — the prefix 3MN identifies the print run it came from.

The condition is stated by the seller as XF — extremely fine — bright and firm, with perhaps one light fold. 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 2 different dates — 09-02-1947 and 02-09-1947. 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.
