Correction: the symbols appears on the new series of banknotes, but you need good a good image resolution to see it, and need to look at the obserse side of the banknot with the highest denomination of 100 Manat:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:100_manat_obv.jpg I can't see the symbol on other banknotes (but it may be present in a cryptic form; I have no Manat banknotes to verify this, and I have never seen it physically). Note that national coins and banknotes are prohibited to be exported from Azerbaijan by foreigners. 2013/4/3 Philippe Verdy <[email protected]> > I reforward a message sent by Rustam Aliyev writing to me because I wrote > about this "new" Azerbaijani Manat currency symbol in... 2008 when it was > introduced.
