The Bank of the Republic of Haiti (BRH) has unveiled the characteristics and security elements of the new 1000 Gourdes banknote put into circulation on the national market.

Features:

On the front of the note is the portrait of President Florvil Hypolite (1889-1896). Issued in 1999 to commemorate the 250th anniversary of the founding of the city of Port-au-Prince (1749), the banknote features on the front the effigy of Florvil Hypolite, nicknamed the Iron President because of his many steel constructions.

On the back is Vallière Market, a mythical shopping center located in the heart of Port-au-Prince on Jean Jacques Dessalines Boulevard.

Security elements:

On the front:

Brilliant 10-point color-changing star-shaped dot located in the lower half, slightly off-center to the right and labeled : "BRH 1000"

Slightly offset to the right, on the front of the banknote is a windowed silver security thread bearing the words "1000 gourdes", which must not be able to be detached from the banknote.

Embossed printing.

On the back :

Effigy of Florvil Hyppolite, the letters "REPUBLIC OF HAITI", the numbers and letters of "1000" gourdes and the 3 points of the code for the blind, which produces a rough feeling to the touch.

The BRH asks the Haitian population to be vigilant so as not to take any counterfeit notes that may be in circulation.
