Mongolia issues updated 5,000-tögrög note

The Central Bank of Mongolia has issued a new 5,000-tögrög banknote. The new note uses "the latest technology elements. This new element is virtually impossible or too costly to imitate.

With the introduction of the 3-dimensional technology and the Spark Inkjet element, the Soyombo on the real currency will have a distinctive feature, which changes color with the movement, from the counterfeit currency."

The old 5,000-tögrög notes will remain valid. New notes of 10,000- and 20,000-tögrög will be issued later this year.
