Banknotes of Fiji

The official currency of Fiji is the Fiji dollar, issued by the Reserve Bank of Fiji. Paper money was first introduced in Fiji in 1952. A key moment in its currency history occurred in 1987 when Fiji underwent a major redesign of its banknotes, featuring vibrant colors and images of local flora and fauna. Collectors find the diverse range of banknotes issued by Fiji appealing, particularly the 1990 series, which showcases portraits of notable Fijian figures and traditional designs. The unique incorporation of indigenous artwork and cultural motifs in these banknotes adds depth to their appeal, highlighting Fiji’s identity through various historical periods.
