Fittingly, these notes are varnished with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bioguard-protected.com\/en\/dispelling-banknote-concerns-with-bioguard\/\">Bioguard<\/a>, adding antibacterial, antifungal, and anti-viral properties to the surface. As Bioguard is a product of Oberthur Fiduciaire, it\u2019s assumed they are the printer of this note which bears no imprint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A total of 2,000,000 notes were printed and introduced into circulation at face value. Special numismatic collector sets, uncut pairs, and 7-note sheets are also available through the Reserve Bank of Fiji.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1637\" height=\"778\" src=\"https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_f.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-36077\" srcset=\"https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_f.jpg 1637w, https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_f-300x143.jpg 300w, https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_f-768x365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_f-1536x730.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_f-465x221.jpg 465w, https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_f-695x330.jpg 695w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1637px) 100vw, 1637px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1641\" height=\"780\" src=\"https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_r.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-36078\" srcset=\"https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_r.jpg 1641w, https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_r-300x143.jpg 300w, https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_r-768x365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_r-1536x730.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_r-465x221.jpg 465w, https:\/\/banknotenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Fiji_RBF_7_dollars_2022.03.28_B533a_PNL_GFG_301218_r-695x330.jpg 695w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1641px) 100vw, 1641px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>B533 <\/strong>(PNL):<strong> 7 dollars <\/strong>(US$3.20)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bronze and gold.
