Issued by the Banque Centrale de Mauritanie in 2017, this 50 Ouguiya banknote is part of the redesigned polymer series introduced to enhance durability and modernize the national currency.
The obverse features national symbols, geometric patterns, and inscriptions in Arabic and French, accompanied by clear denomination markings and detailed guilloche-style elements.
The reverse showcases Mauritanian cultural or architectural motifs—often including traditional structures, local craftsmanship, or symbolic imagery that reflects the nation’s heritage. The vibrant colours and modern layout highlight the transition to polymer banknotes.
