Dimensions of Romania's new Lei match those of Euros:

1 Lei = 5 Euro (same size): http://www.banknotes.com/ro117.htm
5 Lei = 10 Euro, 10 Lei = 20 Euro, 50 Lei = 50 Euro.

Did you know that Soviet Rouble banknotes included denomination
in Finnish language? Included in the design is inscription in Finnish
language (!) : "Viisikymmentä Ruplaa". Probably a planned invasion into
Finland or Karelian Finnish language at that time was recognised as an
official language as a 16th Soviet Republic.

One of the more fascinating Soviet notes are the 1000 Ruble "Babylonians"
from 1919 which have "Workers of the World, Unite" in many different
languages including English.
