Solomon Islands
Central Bank of Solomon Islands
(since 1983)
Currency - Dollar (SBD)
Below are four specimen notes of the current series first released in 2013. This series started with the $50 issued in 2013 and then followed by the $100 in 2015. Both are Hybrid notes and bear the signatures of Denton Hehenoro Rarawa and Shadrach Timonthy Fanega.
In 2017, the central bank released a new $10 and $20 and in 2018 (or 2019), a reprint of the 2015 $100 (nd2017) Hybrid note. These are the four notes I have posted here. A complete series should be - $5 (polymer), $10, $20, $50 and $100. The $5 is a polymer note and was issued in May 2019. I have this note and will post the note separately.
