Ammon News -

The Central Bank of Jordan (CBJ) revealed that it will start issuing the dinar denomination (one dinar) in the new, 5th issue on Monday, so that after that it will proceed with issuing other denominations within dates that will be announced at the time of offering each denomination gradually.

The new issue includes 6 security signs to verify that the banknote is real or not.

The new issue improves the quality of the banknotes available for circulation and prolongs their life, given that nearly twenty years have passed since the launch of the 4th issue of the Jordanian currency in circulation and the emergence of the need to enhance the security signs and technical specifications of the banknote.
