The Saudi Arabian Monetary Authority (SAMA) announced on Saturday its intention to release a Twenty Saudi Riyal banknote, marking Saudi Arabia's presidency of the G20 summit. SAMA said the commemorative banknote is going to be put into circulation by Sunday, together with the other current banknotes as an official legal banknote. SAMA revealed that this banknote was printed according to the latest standards in the field of banknote printing, as it is characterized by many technical specifications, high-quality security features and a distinctive design in purple color that highlights the artistic decorations inspired by the logo of G20. The design of the new banknote carries the picture of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz on the front side with a slogan of Saudi Presidency of G20 in 3D design, added SAMA in a statement. The back of the banknote carries a map of the world, depicting the G20 countries in a different color. Saudi Arabia’s map appears with emanated beams symbolizing the meeting venue of countries and the importance of the Kingdom as a source of civilization and economic hub.
