Bhutan 500 Ngultrum 2025 (2026) P-39a Polymer Banknote UNC
70th Birth Anniversary of King Jigme Singye Wangchuk Commemorative Issue
Issued to commemorate the 70th Birth Anniversary of King Jigme Singye Wangchuk, Bhutan’s revered Fourth Druk Gyalpo, this striking 500 Ngultrum polymer banknote represents one of the most significant modern issues from the Royal Monetary Authority of Bhutan. Printed by De La Rue on advanced polymer substrate, the note combines modern security technology with Bhutan’s rich cultural and royal heritage.
The obverse features King Jigme Singye Wangchuk alongside a cross-vajra (dorje), an ancient Buddhist symbol representing stability, strength, and permanence. The reverse depicts the historic Punakha Dzong, one of Bhutan’s most important monasteries and administrative centers, accompanied by the national seal and two Bhutan Glory butterflies. The note’s vibrant colors, polymer construction, and commemorative status make it a standout addition to any world currency collection.
Condition: Uncirculated (UNC) condition with crisp paper-polymer quality, original colors, and no folds, tears, or writing. Stored flat in a protective sleeve.
