Dominican Republic preparing new notes denominated in pesos Dominicanos

According to a post on the MRI Guide web site dated 15 July 2011, “The Constitution of January 26, 2010 mandated the change of the name of the monetary unit from "peso oro" to "peso Dominicano". To comply with this change the Banco Central de la República Dominicana is preparing a new family of notes. It has been proposed that the national flower, the Rose of Bayahibe and the national tree, The Mahogany should be pictured in the new notes.”
