Barbados gained independence from Britain on 30 November 1966. At the time, the island was still part of the Eastern Caribbean Currency Authority, which issued the East Caribbean dollar for several British Caribbean territories. Barbados used these notes until it chose to establish its own currency. In 1972, Barbados formally withdrew from the Eastern Caribbean Currency Authority and created the Central Bank of Barbados, founded in 1972 to oversee monetary policy and currency issuance. This first series of banknotes issued in 1973 featured several portraits of national heroes and scenes to show national pride. 

Thanks so much for stopping by!
