MBONGO NKÓTO MIBALE
The two thousand banknote — 2,000 Francs
The female portrait on this banknote is one of the most beautiful in all of Central African numismatics. The tied headscarf, the direct gaze, the tropical fruits in the background. This woman has never been named, but she embodies the dignity of an entire continent.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why this banknote?

Yes. 100% certified organic cotton, DTG printing without toxic solvents. Each piece is produced to order to guarantee zero overproduction.
