Namibia's New Currency Reflects Nationalism

Namibia has unveiled a new generation of coins and bank notes celebrating national pride, heritage, and sovereignty as symbols of confidence in its independent future.

While some of the financial systems in the world’s strongest economies are being tested by non-sovereign substitutes for true currency, other, more economically challenged countries continue to appreciate and take pride in their currency systems.

In July, Namibia introduced its newly updated coins and bank notes under the theme “Our Currency, Our Heritage, Our Pride—Meet the Next Generation of the Namibia Dollar.”

The new series celebrates continuity and innovation in the evolution of Namibian currency.

Currency is more than a medium of exchange. It is a declaration of confidence. A visible, tangible symbol of a people’s identity, history, and aspirations. It tells our story to ourselves and the world.

as stated by Johannes !Gawaxab, the Governor of the Bank of Namibia.
