Belize Rolls out New Banknotes
"Long live the que...". Not anymore, sir.
Today, August 4, Belize officially began using its brandnew banknotes. The paper notes emblazoned with Queen Elizabeth II are now history and have been replaced by a more modern style, at least in looks, similar to the peso and quetzal. Banking institutions are now handing out only the new bills but the old ones are still valid until eventually phased out.
