Owner's Description

This particular series introduced by the central bank in 2015 received an award from Reconnaissance International for best Regional banknote of the year in 2016.

This banknote along with the other banknote in set #2 are both low numbered replacement notes. There is a regular issue note in grade 67 in my Nicaragua # 3 set.

This newly designed 200 Cordobas banknote is also the first circulating banknote to feature a new security measure called Latitude from the company Innovia. It is a diffractive optical effect visible from both sides of the note and that is Nicaragua's national bird the Guardabarranco.

The obverse of the banknote features the Ruben Dario Theatre which has featured on many previous Nicaraguan banknotes. And the reverse of the note features the comedy dance El Güegüense. Which is a big part of Nicaraguan folklore and has its roots in the town of Diriamba in the department of Carazo.

As at October 2020 there were a total of 6 of these notes graded. All notes are graded in 65 EPQ with another replacement note in my 2nd set. In the regular issue there was a total of 55 graded with grades between 64 and 68 EPQ, there is a 67 EPQ regular issue in my 3rd set.
