According to the Romanian Law on Copyright and Neighboring Rights:
Law no. 8/1996 of March 14, 1996 Full text

Chapter 3. Article 9. The following shall not benefit from the legal protection accorded to copyright:

(a) the ideas, theories, concepts, discoveries and inventions contained in a work, whatever the manner of the adoption, writing, explanation or expression thereof;
(b) official texts of a political, legislative, administrative or judicial nature, and official translations thereof;
(c) official symbols of the State, public authorities and organizations, such as armorial bearings, seals, flags, emblems, shields, badges and medals;
(d) means of payment;
(e) news and press information;
(f) simple facts and data.

Therefore this is assumed to be in the public domain worldwide, although some of the above categories may be subject to usage restrictions within Romania.

The top text reads "National Bank of the Socialist Republic of Romania". Above the denomination title "ZECE LEI" you can see the coat of arms of Communist Romania. The fine print at the bottom reads "Forging this banknote is punishable by law".
