The Central of The Gambia has reprinted only D50 and D100 of 2012 family of Gambian bank notes as a temporary measure to meet the currency demand while the new family of notes is being printed, according to a media dispatch.

“The only new feature on these notes is the signatures of the new Governor and the new First Deputy Governor. These will be in circulation side-by-side with all previously issued Gambian bank notes.”
