Papua New Guinea new 35th anniversary commemorative notes (B143a – B148a) confirmed

All notes are dated (20)10 and signed by Leonard Wilson Kamit and Simon Tosali.

On 15 September 2010 the Bank of Papua New Guinea introduced new polymer notes to commemorate the nation’s 35th anniversary of independence from Australia. All six denominations (2, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100 kina) have been issued and are like the preceding issues but they have a logo with the text “35th Anniversary 1975 – 2010.” In addition to the notes issued for circulation, the bank is also selling a numismatic product consisting of an album with all the notes with low and matching serial numbers.
