Antique banknotes and landmarks in notemaking
Prior to the adoption of the East Caribbean dollar, St. Vincent used the British West Indies pound. An important milestone in St. Vincent's notafilia was the issuance of its own banknotes in 1913 by the colonial government. These first local banknotes had dollar denominations and circulated alongside the British currency. After independence, St. Vincent joined the Eastern Caribbean monetary system in 1983, marking the beginning of the modern era of its banknotes. The transition to polymer banknotes in 2019 represents the most recent development in the country's monetary history.
