Albania 5 leke KM#76 varieties

I received yesterday the 2011 issue of the Albanian 5 leke. I noticed some differences with previous issues, so, I decided to scan my items and show the results here:



Closer detail of the branch, where 2011 issue has no nodule:



Detail of the 'LEKE' word, where 2011 issue is a bit thinner:



Closer detail of the eagles' heads and upper lettering, where 2000 issue is a clearly different typography. Also, 2011 letters are smaller than 1995:



Detail of the years' typographies and sizes:
