...Zimbabwe - $10 and $20 Dated 2020 Hybrid

Republic of Zimbabwe

Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe

(The King of Funny Money)

Currency : Dollar (ZWD)

These two notes of $10 and $20 were reportedly released in June 2020. These are the 3rd and 4th notes released since 2019 and without the words "Bond Note" printed on, like those $2 and $5 notes issued in 2016.

These two notes are both dated 2020. The design on the front for both notes are basically the same as those previously issued, with the Matapos Balancing rocks near the town of Epworth, about 17 kilometers southeast of Harare. These rocks are located at the Matapos National Park. The rocks' formation are of natural occurrence and became popular when the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe started using the images on the front of their banknotes. The rocks that are depicted on the notes are known as Chiremha Balancing rocks. 

On the back, the $10 features the Reserve Bank's building, Cape buffaloes and the $20 features an elephant and the world famous Victoria Falls as the background. Victoria falls is located between the towns of Victoria Falls (Zimbabwe) and Livingstone (Zambia). The town Livingstone was named after a Scottish Explorer David Livingstone and Victoria Falls was named after Queen Victoria. Victoria Falls is located between the borders of Zambia and Zimbabwe.

These two notes are reported to be printed on Hybrid materials.
