General Press Releases - Press Release June 20, 2006
The Central Bank of Barbados wishes to advise the public that an upgraded $20
note is in circulation.
The new and readily visible feature of the upgraded $20 note is on the front of
the note: - The security thread has been upgraded from an embedded security
thread to a windowed thread.
The thread is incorporated into the note and is partially visible when the note is
lying flat, giving the effect of a broken line. The text clearly reads "CBB $20"
when the note is held up to the light.
All other features of the $20 note remain the same.
The upgraded notes will circulate simultaneously with the previous issues of
notes, which remain legal tender.
