****Zimbabwe - These are the two latest notes of $10 and $20 circulating in the country. Like those issued in 2019 for the $2 and $5, these two are also printed on Hybrid materials. It is believed that larger denominations of $50 and $100 will be issued at a later date.
These two notes of $10 and $20 were reportedly released in June 2020. These are the 3rd and 4th notes released since 2019 and without the words "Bond Note" printed on, like those $2 and $5 notes issued in 2016.
These two notes are both dated 2020. The design on the front for both notes are basically the same as those previously issued, with the Matapos Balancing rocks near the town of Epworth, about 17 kilometers southeast of Harare. These rocks are located at the Matapos National Park. The rocks' formation are of natural occurrence and became popular when the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe started using the images on the front of their banknotes. The rocks that are depicted on the notes are known as Chiremha Balancing rocks.
On the back, the $10 features the Reserve Bank Tower building, Cape buffaloes and the $20 features an elephant and the world famous Victoria Falls as the background. Victoria falls is located between the towns of Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe) and Livingstone (Zambia). The town Livingstone was named after a Scottish Explorer David Livingstone and Victoria Falls was named after Queen Victoria. Victoria Falls is owned by both Zambia and Zimbabwe.
