With Maldives Monetary Authority (MMA) releasing the new 2025 print dated banknotes there is something I discovered that has never happened before until now
Between 1947 to 2024 Maldives have never released the same denomination value banknote in 2 consecutive years.
The previous closest was the 500 Rufiyaa (2006 and 2008) & the 100 Rufiyaa (2013 and 2015 - although one is paper and one is polymer)
100 Rufiyaa
July 2024 (1446)
July 2025 (1447)
With my limited knowledge as I only collect Maldives - have any other countries done this before (release the same value 2 years in a row)?
