The obverse carries a portrait of Gabriel Garcia Moreno, a conservative politician and the President of Ecuador from 1861-65 and then 1869-75. He was assassinated at the end of his second term, after winning a third term as President. The reverse features coat of arms of Ecuador. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese high denomination notes were issued in the late 1990s, after Ecuador had faced years of high inflation (20-50% per annum), which made the currency practically worthless (20,000 sucres to a US dollar). In early 2000, Ecuador adopted the US dollar as legal tender, at the rate of 25,000 sucres to a dollar - dollar continues to remain legal tender for Ecuador even today. Thus, these were amongst the last banknotes to be printed by Ecuador.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sucre had been introduced as currency in 1884 - its span of 116 years makes it one of the longest used currencies in South America, where most countries have run through multiple currencies in the 1980s and 1990s. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSize: 156 mm* 67 mm\u003cbr\u003eRead more about this note \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/en.numista.com\/208836\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNotes are in uncirculated condition, and are part of a lot.
