Norway issues new 50- and 500-kroner notes
The Norges Bank has issued the new 50- and 500-kroner notes of the new Norwegian banknote series on 18 October 2018.
The theme of the new series is the Sea. When the winning concept was announced it created quite a stir among collectors and in the world of banknotes. The design shows a traditional image on the front which has a connection with the sea (a boat, a lighthouse, a wave, etc.). The back of the notes shows a pixelated image connected with the image on the front which gives it an ultra-modern and very original design.
Some details on the new notes:
- 50-krone, green, 70x126 mm, front: Utvær Lighthouse in Solund, back: lighthouse beacon
- 500-krone, yellow-brown, 70x147 mm, front: rescue vessel RS 14 "Stavanger", back: oil platform
