1992 5000 Zambian Kwacha Banknote

My banknotes and various other legal tender.

A 1992 banknote -- k5000 - 5000 Zambian Kwacha.


I think it is a beautiful banknote.

African nations' paper banknotes are among the most good looking... even if the exchange rate to major currencies is very low.


The eagle is the fish eagle on the obverse.



Some macro.


On the left is a reminder that it is a Lion.


"Thomas De La Rue and Company Limited"

The fish eagle again.


Unfortunately this note is no longer legal tender as in 2013 there was a rebasing of the currency and the new Kwacha is now legal tender.
