The notes carry the value in Slovak, Russian and Ukrainian (\"Dvacať korún\", \"Двадцать крон\"). They were withdrawn on 31 October 1945, when Czechoslovakia reformed its currency. A specimen is an official sample of a banknote, perforated with the word SPECIMEN so that it could never be spent. Specimens were made for banks and officials to recognise genuine notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e🎨 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDesign Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFront:\u003c\/strong\u003e \"Republika Československá\" arched over a sunburst of guilloche lines, with \"Dvacať korún\" in the centre, the value in Russian and Ukrainian, the date 1944 and red serial numbers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBack:\u003c\/strong\u003e three large \"20\" numerals on a fine guilloche background.
