The Albanian lek’s largest current denomination is L5,000, worth about $62.67: the 35th most valuable top note among the 150 circulating currencies we have verified, where the median is $27.18.
Bars are scaled to face value on a log scale, not to physical size. Colours are the issuer’s own. Converted at mid-market reference rates; what a counter pays is always less.
