Nepal – Banknotes

Nepalese banknotes include issues of the Nepalese rupee, reflecting the country’s economic, political and cultural development from the 20th century to the present. The series feature historical figures, Nepalese cultural heritage, architectural landmarks, natural landscapes such as the Himalayas, local fauna and symbolic motifs representing national identity, accompanying monetary reforms, modernization phases and periods of economic growth. Due to their design variety, variants, signatures and historical relevance within South Asia, Nepalese paper money is appreciated in international numismatics and sought after by world banknote collectors.
