No, I am looking for the note for my own collection. I was hoping that collectors here may have this spare note to offer. Thanks

Yeah but the poster before got the wrong note and with a link everyone can quickly check if they have a spare to swap or not.

It's the date printed on the note - 1 June 2012.

What's your reason for looking for this specific note?

The reason is, I had to collect the rest of the series because there are a lot of interesting differences between the years. So I have them all except that one!

See here, what I found:

2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017: there is a gold iridescent ink strip on the obverse with “RBM” visible. This strip starts to the left of the fish

2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017: the background pattern on the note has straight herring-bone pattern, no circles

2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017: the note has diagonal cornerstone watermarks on each corner

2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017: the watermark portrait of Inkosi ya Makhosi M’mbelwa II is the earlier version with the mouth closed

2019 and 2020: the gold iridescent strip is moved to the right so it covers the fish and now it also has the number 20 repeated four times below

2019 and 2020: there are no diagonal cornerstone watermarks on the corners of the note

2019 and 2020: the note now has concentric circular patterns 

2019: the watermark portrait of Inkosi ya Makhosi M’mbelwa II is the earlier version with the mouth closed

2020: the watermark portrait of Inkosi ya Makhosi M’mbelwa II is the later version with the mouth slightly open

Just a bump because I am still hunting this, it seems to be not so common!
