This is the first-issue ₹20 Parliament note, among the earliest twenty-rupee notes issued by the Reserve Bank of India. As a first issue, it opens the twenty-rupee series, which is exactly why collectors seek it out.
First-issue notes hold a special place in any collection because they mark the start of a design. Early twenty-rupee notes are also distinguished by their signing governor and by small design varieties that specialists identify, and well-preserved examples in collectable grade are increasingly difficult to source.
What such a note fetches turns on its signature, its design variety and its overall grade — crisp, problem-free paper always commands a premium.
