About this banknote
The Bank of Zambia issued the 5 kwacha banknote in 2012. This series was introduced to align with the currency rebasing process aimed at simplifying monetary transactions by removing three zeros from the currency. Michael M. Gondwe was the governor signing these notes during this period.
The front of the 5 kwacha note features a fish eagle and a baobab tree, while the back displays a lion's head, a plant, and the Freedom Statue. The note was printed by Giesecke & Devrient, measures 145 x 70 mm, and uses paper as the substrate. The note's primary colors are blue and multicolor.
