Amman, The Central Bank of Jordan (CBJ) on Saturday published pictures of the 5th issue of Jordanian banknotes (JD50, JD20 JD10, and JD5).
The banknotes are decorated with pictures of the Hashemite kings as they are in the 4th issue, descriptions and specifications of which were previously announced in the bylaw for issuing Jordanian banknotes for 2022 issued in the Official Gazette on October 2, 2022, in order to introduce the public to the key images and landmarks on these banknotes, which reflect originality, modernity and contemporaneity.
The new issue includes the latest security signs used in the world of the monetary industry, in addition to improving the quality of banknotes and maintaining them in circulation, given that the 4th issue was launched nearly twenty years ago, as well as the need to strengthen the security signs and technical specifications of the banknote and improve the signs of distinguishing the banknotes of cash for the blind and visually impaired.
In this regard, the CBJ said that these banknotes won’t carry the legal status (as a tradable currency) provided that they are introduced alongside the current issue of banknotes (the 4th issue), within dates that will be announced when introducing each banknote by the CBJ, with the exception of the 1JD banknote that was put into circulation on December 26, 2022 along with the 4th issue 1JD banknote.
