In my opinion, the 2001 note should not be with the others, there are a lot of differences (besides the banner height on the obverse):

 

The “yellow” on the left of the 2001 obverse is composed of repeating text:

 

 

The yellow on the reverse on the right is also composed of this yellow text:

 

On the other notes, the “pink" on the left obverse is composed of lines, not text:

 

On the reverse right of the other notes the pink is composed of the same repeating text as on the 2001 note, but in pink.

 

But there is a difference in the border to the left of this text. On the 2001, there is no wavy border:

The other notes have a wavy line border:

 

Then on the edges of the notes, they changed the pink pattern. On the 2001 note it is straight and diagonal lines:

 

On the others that pattern changed to hexagons:

 

Then there are UV differences. Here's the 2001 note obverse at 365nm. The UV activity involves the patterns at left and right sides and also goes over the wavy border:

 

On the 2002 note the UV doesn't extend to the patterns at left and right and it also stops short of the wavy pattern:

 

By the way at 254nm they all have a red pattern visible on the obverse. First the 2001 note:

 

And now the 2002 note:

I hate all those almost identical notes littering my type-collection … but fully agree with the split 😪

Just call me Bram

No new swaps for the moment, still too many half-ongoing swaps to clean up!

Of course this should be split.
