ASTANA, Kazakhstan, Oct. 4 (UPI) -- Kazakhstan's latest bills may become an instant collector's item because of a typographical error, Moscow News reported.

The new 2,000-tenge and 5,000-tenge notes have a mistake in the name of the National Bank of Kazakhstan, the Vremya Novostei newspaper said. Anvar Saidenov, chairman of the bank, told parliament that the government decided to put the notes into circulation because most of the batch had been printed with the error.

Saidenov said that all future money will be correct.
