Own one of the most visually stunning and historically poignant banknotes of the African continent. This authentic 2 Dollars banknote was issued by the Reserve Bank of Rhodesia on 24th May 1979, just months before the nation transitioned to modern-day Zimbabwe.

This note belongs to the final "Zimbabwe Bird" watermark series, representing the last era of Rhodesian currency. It is a favorite among world numismatists for its rich red tones and masterful engraving.

• Reverse (Back): Showcases a world-famous panoramic view of the Victoria Falls (Mosi-oa-Tunya), highlighting the majestic "Smoke that Thunders" on the Zambezi River.

• Security: Features the Zimbabwe Bird watermark, a transitionary feature used in the 1979 issues, replacing the earlier Cecil Rhodes watermark.

• Date of Issue: 24th May 1979.

• Signatory: Features the printed signature of Governor Desmond Krogh.
