Owner's Description
These banknotes of Cinco (5) Córdobas were issued under two separate decrees.
The first the Executive Decree 73-MEIC approved on the 27th of April 1972 authorised the issuance of a new Series C banknotes. For the 5 Córdobas there was 7,000,000 banknotes authorised with a total face value of C$35,000,000
These notes feature a light green background with the effigy of Cacique Nicarao on the obverse and a trabajador (worker) on the reverse. The serial number commence with 0000001 until completion (7000000).
There was a second Executive Decree 76-MEIC approved on the 13th of March 1974 that authorised a further issuance of another 10,000,000 Cinco Córdobas banknotes with a total face value of C$50,000,000
These banknotes will continue from the original first issuance of serial numbers from 7000001 - through to completion (17000000). This has created a variety of both seven (this example) & eight digit serial numbers (as can be seen in the 2nd & 3rd sets).
As at October 2020 this was the only specimen note certified. And there was a total of 14 regular issue notes certified with grades between 64 & 67 EPQ, you will see a 66 EPQ graded note in my 2nd set.
