Valuable and popular banknotes
The most valuable Martinica banknotes sought after by collectors are the following:
The history of banknotes in Martinique reflects the economic and political evolution of this Caribbean island. From its first colonial banknotes to the adoption of the euro, Martinique has undergone several changes in its monetary system that have left a rich numismatic heritage.
Old banknotes of Martinique
The first banknotes of Martinique date back to the French colonial period. The Banque de la Martinique issued banknotes from 1874 to 1944, with denominations in francs. These banknotes often featured tropical motifs and local scenes, such as sugar cane plantations and coastal landscapes. In 1944, the French West Indies franc replaced the Martinique franc, and new banknotes were issued by the Institut d'Émission des Départements d'Outre-Mer (IEDOM).
Current banknotes in circulation
Since 2002, Martinique, as an integral part of France, has used the euro as its official currency. Euro banknotes are identical to those used throughout the euro zone, thus losing the local designs characteristic of previous banknotes. However, the euro coins minted in Martinique maintain a specific design on their national side, allowing to preserve part of the island's numismatic identity in the modern era.
This country is currently part of the old banknotes of France.
