Current banknotes in circulation
Currently, Mexico has a series of banknotes called "G", which includes denominations of 20, 50, 100, 200, 500 and 1000 pesos. These bills are characterized by their colorful design and advanced security features. Each denomination pays tribute to different historical periods and important Mexican figures, such as Benito Juárez on the 20-peso bill and Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz on the 200-peso note.
Historical banknotes and milestones in Mexican notemaking
Among the most notable historical banknotes are those issued during the Mexican Revolution, known as "bilimbiques". An important milestone was the creation of the Banco de México in 1925, which centralized the issuance of banknotes. In 1969, the 100 peso bill with the image of Nezahualcoyotl was introduced, marking the beginning of the representation of pre-Hispanic figures on Mexican paper money. In 1996, Mexico became one of the first countries to introduce polymer banknotes, starting with the 20 peso denomination.
