Comments

Same design as banknote P#22 except the name of the national bank, date  and signatures. Watermark may vary.
Later in 1941 this banknote was overprinted and it is P#23 (overprinted only on P#27b)

Years and name of the banks are the most easy way to distinguish them and watermarks are important:

1920 = P#22 NARODNA BANKA KRALJEVINE SRBA, HRVATA I SLOVENACA        watermark like P#27a
1929 = P#23 NARODNA BANKA KRALJEVINE JUGOSLAVIJE                                     exists with both watermarks
1941 = P#27 СРПСКА НАРОДНА БАНКА (SRPSKA NARODNA BANKA)                 watermark like P#27b

This catalog number banknote has 2 different watermarks.
P#27a head of general (man in uniform) in profile (in region called Black George/Karađorđe)

P#27b head of King Alexander I in profile

There has been made couterfeits at the time and cancelled by the authority. They can be found on the market and it is very intersting to have them in collection beside the originals. This is how they look like:
