New $100 note for CHOGM

A new $100 bill will be circulated to commemorate the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) that will be held from November 27-29.

Joan John, deputy governor, operations, Central Bank, said the new bill will be in circulation within weeks and will be legal tender. “This is a normal circulation note, so it will be spent like a normal $100 bill. It will circulate side by side with existing notes after the CHOGM events are finished. We expect to put these notes into circulation over the next three or four weeks,” she said. John said this at the launch of the new note at the Central Bank, Port-of-Spain, yesterday. “Banks normally come into us and get currency and as they take $100 notes, they will be taking the new notes, and through the commercial banks, it will go out into the public,” she said. John said the next step will be getting the word out on these new notes to the public.

“We will be giving brochures and posters to banks, credit unions—people who handle money so that they will know the features of the notes,” John said.
She said all the security features of the current $100 notes in circulation remain.

John said there are two changes to the front of the $100 bill.
• 60 years of the Commonwealth 1949-2009
• CHOGM logo in single colour
On the reverse of the note are the following changes:
• CHOGM logo in full colour
• Carnival sun image at the top of the note
• The Port-of-Spain International Waterfront Centre and the view of the city of Port-of-Spain in the background
• The oil rig has been shifted to the right of the note
• Larger $100 numeral at the top right of the note
• ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS in words at the bottom of the note.



I hear just now they gonna take out the coat of arms and replace it with a pic of Patrick Manning  :devil: :devil:
