About this banknote
The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe issued the 20-dollar banknote in 2006. This series was introduced during a period of hyperinflation, necessitating the release of high-denomination bearers’ checks to keep up with the rapid price increases. These emergency checks were signed by Dr. Gideon Gono, then the Governor of the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe.
The front side of the banknote features a design characteristic of the 2006-2008 Emergency Bearer Checks with a prominent brown color palette. This note includes an image of the famous waterfalls, providing a visually striking element. Printed by Fidelity Printers, this note lacks a specified demonetization date but was part of efforts to quickly address the monetary situation in the country.
