america: ..Venezuela - 2018 Prints from 2 to 500 Bolivares

Republica Bolivariana de Venezuela

(Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela)

Banco Central de Venezuela (BCV)

(Central Bank of Venezuela)

Currency - Bolivar (VEF)

Here is a full set of Venezuelan banknotes from 2 to 500 bolivares all printed with the year date of 2018. These notes have since been replaced by much higher denomination of banknotes mainly due to the current ongoing socioeconomic crises and the run away hyperinflation the country is facing. These notes are now worth less than the paper it's printed on, as the highest value of note issued is now 1,000,000 bolivares. In fact, these notes are now worthless to the Venezuelans. Given that these are worthless, there are no shortage of supply, especially in uncirculated conditions. Despite these notes have no purchasing power, there are still worth something to collectors. Collecting them are just like collecting those Zimbabwe worthless notes issued in the 2000s.

The themes for this series are famous people on the front and wild animals and national parks on the back. Whilst I have all the notes here, this is not a full set as there are reprints for some denominations specially for those higher value which I do not have. The first issues are all dated 15.01.2018. All notes are printed vertically on the front and horizontal on the back.
