On thursday, October 28, the Bank of Mexico put into circulation the new 50 peso Banknote. This is the sixth and last member of the new G banknote family. Highlights the presence of Axolotl, a kind of amphibian in danger of extinction that has the ability to regenerate his organs and limbs in addition to having the largest genome in the world mapped up to this moment. Larger than human.

Here are some of the characteristics of this new banknote:

Denomination: $50 Pesos
Substrate: Polymer
Color: Purple
Size: 125 x 65 mm
Printer: Bank of Mexico
Orientation: Vertical
Obverse: Monolith Fragment "Teocalli de la Guerra Sagrada" representation of the foundation of Mexico-Tenochtitlan. In the background, mural by Diego Rivera

Reverse: Axolotl, dragonfly and the ecosystem of rivers and lakes of xochimilco.

Mintage: 60 million already printed with an estimated production for 2021 and 2020 of 180 million

Where did you find these numbers?

More generally speaking, does Banco de Mexico publish the number of banknotes (by denomination) it prints/produces annually?
I only found how many BdM put into circulation per month.

You are right, The amount of printed banknotes is not revealed on the Banco de Mexico website. They only make public the amounts of new bills that they put into circulation monthly.

This numbers were revealed during the press conference by the general director of Banknote Emissions Alejandro Alegre Rabiela.

Interesting note! Thanks for posting!

I would enjoy seeing a close-up image of the Axolotl. It's an animal I didn't realize existed until reading about this note.

Thanks for this. The banknote design is very attractive.

I have just been reading up on Axolotls on NatGeo!

Thanks for posting, Lion Alchmist. I'll be hunting for one of these to add to the Monarch note. Looks like they can be picked up for around $11-15 USD on the bay.
