You're referring to the new banknotes introduced by the Bank of Ghana!

In July 2022, the Bank of Ghana introduced new banknotes in denominations of GH¢5, GH¢10, GH¢20, GH¢50, and GH¢100. The new notes feature enhanced security features and a new design.

Here are some key features of the new banknotes:

  1. Security Features: The new notes have advanced security features, including:
    • Watermark: A transparent image of the Ghanaian coat of arms or the face of a prominent Ghanaian leader.
    • Hologram: A 3D image that shifts and changes color as the note is tilted.
    • Microprinting: Tiny text that is difficult to reproduce.
    • Raised Printing: Raised patterns and textures that can be felt when running the note over the fingers.
  2. Design: The new notes feature a new design that reflects Ghana's rich cultural heritage and natural beauty. The obverse (front) of the notes features:
    • The Ghanaian coat of arms.
    • The face of a prominent Ghanaian leader (e.g., Kwame Nkrumah, Jerry Rawlings, or John Kufuor).
    • A representation of Ghana's natural resources (e.g., cocoa, gold, or oil).
  3. Color Scheme: The new notes have a distinct color scheme, with each denomination having a unique color:
    • GH¢5: Green
    • GH¢10: Blue
    • GH¢20: Red
    • GH¢50: Purple
    • GH¢100: Gold

The new banknotes are designed to be more durable and resistant to wear and tear, making them easier to use and more secure for transactions.
