Barbados Banknotes Catalog

The history of banknotes in Barbados reflects the economic and cultural evolution of this Caribbean nation. Since its independence in 1966, Barbados has issued its own currency, the Barbadian dollar, which includes a series of banknotes with unique designs that represent the country's identity and heritage.

Current banknotes in circulation

Current Barbadian banknotes are characterized by their colorful design and advanced security features. The most recent series, introduced in 2013, includes denominations of $2, $5, $10, $10, $20, $50 and $100. Each bill features portraits of important Barbadian historical figures, such as Sir Grantley Adams and Sir Frank Worrell, along with iconic images of the island, such as Parliament and tropical beaches.

Historical banknotes and landmarks in notafilia

Prior to independence, Barbados used banknotes issued by the Government of Barbados and the Bank of Barbados. A significant milestone was the introduction of the first $1 bill in 1973, which featured the portrait of Samuel Jackman Prescod, the first man of color elected to the Barbados House of Assembly. Another pivotal moment was the commemoration of the 50th anniversary of independence in 2016 with the issuance of a special $50 bill, which stood out for its innovative design and enhanced security features.
