200 Bolivian Bolivianos Banknote (Franz Tamayo)

200 Bolivianos (Issued 1986)

This 200 Bolivianos note, issued by the Banco Central de Bolivia under Law 901 of 28 November 1986, features a finely engraved portrait of Franz Tamayo (1879–1956), the distinguished Bolivian poet, essayist and politician whose writing helped shape the country’s cultural identity. The portrait appears on the front alongside the bank’s title, “BANCO CENTRAL DE BOLIVIA”, and the denomination expressed in words and figures as “DOSCIENTOS BOLIVIANOS” and “200”. The design belongs to the modern Boliviano series introduced after the 1986 monetary reform, and its later printings remain legal tender today.

The reverse depicts the monolithic stone monuments of Tiwanaku — most notably the celebrated Gate of the Sun (Puerta del Sol) — one of the most significant pre-Columbian archaeological sites in South America, located near the southern shores of Lake Titicaca. The Tiwanaku civilisation flourished for over a millennium and remains a defining symbol of Bolivia’s indigenous heritage; its selection for this denomination was a deliberate statement of national pride. The denomination numeral “200” is repeated in the corners, with the issuing bank’s name inscribed above the scene.
