New Generation Currency series (current)[edit]
In 2009, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas announced that it will launch a
massive redesign for the banknotes and coins to further enhance security
features and to improve durability.[8] The members of the numismatic
committee included Bangko Sentral Deputy Governor Diwa Guinigundo and
Dr. Ambeth Ocampo, chairman of the National Historical Institute. Designed
by Studio 5 Designs and Design Systemat, the new banknotes' designs features
famous Filipinos and iconic natural wonders. Philippine national symbols will
be depicted on coins. The BSP started releasing the initial batch of new
banknotes in December 2010. The word used in the bills was "Pilipino". On
December 16, 2010, the new design for Philippine banknotes were released.
The font used for lettering in the banknotes is Myriad, while the numerals are
set in the Twentieth Century font.[9] On December 16, 2016, BSP announced
that they will launch sets of banknotes bearing President Duterte's signature.
The BSP initially released five million pieces of the new 20, 50, 100, 500, and
1,000-peso bills with Duterte's signature. As for the 200-pesos bills, only two
million pieces were released because of lower demand for this denomination.
