Background & history
This note belongs to the post-independence Peso series issued by Guinea-Bissau between 1990 and 1997, following the country's independence from Portugal in 1974. The Peso was the national currency until 1997, when Guinea-Bissau joined the West African Economic and Monetary Union (WAEMU) and adopted the CFA Franc BCEAO. The 1990 series featured imagery celebrating national identity, indigenous culture, and traditional economic activities. The date '1 DE MARÇO DE 1990' (March 1, 1990) appears on the note. These notes were demonetized upon the currency changeover in 1997.
