End of Year Stock taking - 6126 notes

1st December 2022

Cambodia - Here are the two specimen notes of 1000 and 5000 riels. These two notes are printed with the year dates of 2016 and 2015 respectively. Both notes were released on the same day on 25.10.2017, to coincide with the third anniversary of the coronation of King Norodom Sihamoni.

3rd December 2022

Qatar - This is a 22 riyals polymer commemorative note issued on 09.11.2022, celebrating the 22nd FIFA World Cup final in Qatar from 21.11.2022 to 19.12.2022. And the champion is ........!

10th December 2022

Poland - A full set of nine notes not issued and all printed with the date of 01.03.1990. These notes were printed due to the currency reform, and were meant to be issued in the early 1990s, but was later cancelled in 1994, mainly due to poor design of the series, and also partly due to the unstable of the Polish economy at that time. These notes were put together by the Bank in a very nice booklet presentation folder with information about this issue in both Polish and English. If you are a series collector, this numismatic item should not be missed, in my opinion.

16th December 2022

Tonga - This is the second reprint of the 50 pa'ange Hybrid note and is believed it was released in (nd)2020. This reprinted note has two new signatures as compared to the previous nd2018 issue. There are no change to the design on this note except the two new signatures. It is not sure if other notes are also issued since the series was first introduced in 2015. Needless to say, the 50 pa'ange must be a very popular denomination circulating in the nation.

18th October 2022

Philippines - A full set of five notes, from 50 to 1000 piso all printed with the year date of 2020. The 1000 piso has since been replaced by the polymer note released in 2022.

25th December 2022 (Merry Christmas)

Comoros - Here are the two notes of 500 and 1000 francs both issued in (nd)2020. These two notes were reportedly printed on Hybrid material.

United Arab Emirates - Two polymer notes of 5 and 10 dihrams released in April 2022. This is a new series of banknotes, with the first note released in December 2021. This is the third series of banknotes issued since 1973. It is believed that the entire new series will be printed on polymer substrate materials.
