The note is possibly the first in which environmental impact was a consideration in its production.
Governor Ainuu-Enari said in a press release, the new 10-tala bank note design “celebrates the youth of Samoa and our sporting legacy. Their stories of daily life and the realization of their sporting dreams are told through images placed on the note.”
The note was designed and printed by De La Rue. It is Samoa’s first with a horizontal face and a vertical back.
