About West African States

With the exception of the first series issued in 1959, a letter on the front of each note uniquely identifies the country of issue, though the notes circulated throughout the West African franc zone. Take care not to confuse the series letter for the country code, the position of which changed with each new note family. Beginning in 1991, the first two digits of the serial number represent the last two digits of the year of introduction. Beginning in 2003, the third and fourth digits of the serial number represent a 2-digit numeric code that also corresponds to the country of issue.
