Home Sweet Home

News Update...The latest for anyone who's wondering why they put an "A" in the dates of the 2008A P20 and the 2010A P100..  
    In a Bangko Sentral release it states,  “The serial number on Philippine banknotes consists of two (2) alpha and six numerics per denomination. The total number     of banknotes per denomination that can be printed with SN A0000001 to SN ZZ1000000 is 600 million pieces. When the actual production of banknotes per denomination exceeds 600 million pieces, the suffix A is added after the year mark in order to avoid duplication of the serial number.”
(The 20 Piso Dated notes have been updated to reflect this latest information).

FORWARD   This site is to help people who collect Philippine banknotes issued by the Central Bank of the Philippines and later the Bangko Sentral Ng Pilipinas. Because Philippine notes are not dated before 1997 I have listed my personal collection based on serial numbers to show the progress of each denomination. My lists are based on the catalogue numbers used in the 1989 Guy Davis catalogue and the supplement by Jose de Borja, (with later issues numbered by myself using the same system). The corresponding Pick numbers are also listed, but the use of Pick numbers is advised against as it is a very basic listing with many banknotes left out. The listings shows all the signature combinations, serial numbers and their colours. If anybody has any information to add or have any banknotes I'm missing could you please contact me. I have been writing a book on Philippine banknote issues for many years with the help of my friend Dominic Albert of Quezon City (nowdays lurking around Long Beach USA), and many thanks must go to him. If you have any information on notes I haven't listed, contact me at... pinoynotes@y7mail.com  All the Best and Happy Collecting....Christopher Gibbs
