The banknotes currently in circulation are 50, 100, 200, 500, 1,000 and 2,000 pesos oros. The 5 and 10 peso notes stopped circulating and were replaced by coins of 5, 10 and 25 pesos respectively. Meanwhile, the 500 and 2,000 pesos gold banknotes were issued on the occasion of the 500th anniversary of the discovery of America and the arrival of the new millennium.

It should be noted that all banknotes bear the phrase: “This banknote has liberatory force for the payment of all public or private obligations”.
