You know how sometimes you get a weird coin or old note in your change and wonder, “Eh… is this worth something?”
That’s exactly what happened to one Malaysian who simply wanted some chicken rice—but ended up with a RM1 note that got the internet talking.
“This RM1 note feels a bit strange…”
In a post shared on Facebook by Ah Khoo 旧钞收购站, the user recalled getting the odd-looking note as change from a chicken rice stall uncle earlier that morning.
This morning I had chicken rice, and the boss gave me change. This one-ringgit note feels a bit strange. Can you guys help me take a look?”
And no, it wasn’t about how worn out the note was.
In the photo he posted, the serial numbers on the back of the note caught people’s attention—the black and red serials were misaligned, something not typically seen on standard RM1 notes.
Netizens: “This one costs three hundred.”
The comment section quickly turned into a mini appraisal corner, with users chiming in with everything from jokes to serious speculation.
“This one costs three hundred.”
“Can I exchange 1 with you?”
“It’s fake, the bank won’t accept it.”
While it’s unclear if the note is a rare collectible or a misprint, the post instantly went viral, sparking debate on whether this was a lucky find or just a flawed print.
So next time you get change at your favourite kopitiam, maybe take a second look—you might just walk away with more than lunch.
