Zambian notes are well renown for their beauty and interesting designs and color especially the notes featuring the Fish Eagle. Imagine how beautiful and special one of these notes would be in the Polymer version. As you hopefully know polymer notes are special not only because of their unusual features, but also because of their feel. The front of this note has outstanding coloration and features a beautiful “Fish Eagle” (A bird with excellent vision and swift reaction that symbolizes the country’s focus on economic growth and its’ ability to rise above all challenges) The middle front of the note shows a Baobab tree (which can grow up to 25 meters tall and live for several thousand years) The back of the note feature on the right the “Freedom Statue” in the center it features “Cotton Picking” and on the left a “Large Eared African Elephant” {Interesting note: Kwacha means “dawn” in the Chibemba language, signifying the “dawn” of freedom. - Note collecting is not only fun, but can be educational as well – what a great way for children, and adults, to learn History, Culture and Geography} This note also has one of my favorite features that are on all the polymer notes I own, that being a clear see through shape (window). This note is uncirculated. (Note: I do my best to give as much information as possible about each note. However, this information can not be guaranteed as accurate, although I do my best to research and confirm information)
