Sao Tome and Principe - 2018 New Series (Dobras Currency Reform) Full Set

República Democrática de São Tomé e Príncipe
Democratic Republic of São Tomé and Príncipe 

This is a complete set of the new currency reform banknotes issued on 01.01.2018. The notes are all printed with the date of 21.10.2016. These new series replaced previous Dobras currency by removing 3 zeros from the value (ie 1,000 old Dobras = 1 new Dobras). There are 6 notes in this new series with denominations consisting of 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 Dobras. The two lower value notes are printed on polymer materials whilst the remaining 4 notes are cotton based paper banknotes. All these notes were printed by De La Rue.

The designs on the front for this series are basically the same with the exception of the two polymer notes where a see-through window is added together with the image of Rei Amador. The designs on the front features butterflies and the central bank building. On the back, the common images are map of Sao Tome e Principe and cocoa pod and with one animal each for each denomination - São Tomé shrew, prinia bird, giant treefrog, weaver perched, mona monkey and sunbird.
