This 50 Rupee banknote was issued by Mauritius in 2013. It is part of the JF series and commemorates J.M. Paturau as well as the country's hotel industry. The banknote is made of polymer.
The obverse of the banknote features a portrait of Sir Jean Moilin Paturau (J.M. Paturau), an important figure in the history of Mauritius. There are also graphic elements representing hotel buildings and infrastructure, symbolizing the development of this economic sector in the country. The face value of 50 Rupees is clearly indicated.
The reverse of the banknote illustrates a view of a typical hotel in Mauritius, highlighting the importance of tourism to the local economy. Decorative motifs and Mauritian national symbols complete the design. The face value is also repeated on the reverse.
This 2013 50 Rupee banknote is an example of how Mauritius highlights its prominent figures and key industries through its currency. The choice of polymer as the manufacturing material ensures increased durability and resistance to counterfeiting.
