Banknotes of Dominican Republic

The official currency of the Dominican Republic is the Dominican peso, issued by the Central Bank of the Dominican Republic. Paper money was first introduced in 1897 with the "peso" denomination. In 2003, the Dominican Republic undertook a major currency reform, which included the introduction of new banknotes and the elimination of the old series. Collectors are particularly attracted to the banknotes of the Dominican Republic due to their vibrant colors and intricate designs. The current series features portraits of prominent figures in Dominican history, such as Juan Pablo Duarte, one of the founding fathers, alongside various national symbols and landscapes, capturing the country's identity.
