About this banknote
The Centrale Bank van Suriname issued the 5000 gulden banknote in 1997. This series was introduced to support the country's need for higher denomination banknotes due to economic conditions at the time. Such moves were often made to accommodate inflation and the practical needs of currency users.
The front side of the banknote features a building and floral motif, along with the signatures of authorized officials, including Henk O. Goedschalk. The back side depicts an agricultural scene with an oil pump and features a bird. The note was printed by Thomas De La Rue (TDLR), with a total production of 2,500,000 pieces.
