Owner's Description

These 2006 series B notes were carried over from the previous 2002 series A note designs.

I don't have exact figures but I believe there was possibly 15-20 million of these notes produced based on the serial numbers I have seen for this issue.

The obverse of the banknote features former Nicaraguan President Jose Santos Zelaya, who ruled over Nicaragua from 1893 to 1909. He was featured on the 20 Cordoba banknotes from 1997 through to 2006 and on the early 1900s issue 5 Pesos notes.

The reverse of the note features a humble fishing boat in a beach scene from the Southern Atlantic Coast (Caribbean Coast).

As at October 2020 there was a total of 91 of these notes which I believe makes this note the 2nd most certified of any of the Nicaraguan issues behind the 2011 50 Cordobas issue. This one is equal 2nd with 4 others in grade 68 EPQ with only one graded higher in 69 EPQ *.
