== Banknotes == [[File:10000_Francs_Pacifique.jpg|thumb|Original series {{nowrap|F 10,000}} banknote, first issued 1986]] The IEOM began issuing banknotes in New Hebrides in 1965, and in New Caledonia and French Polynesia in 1969, in 500, 1,000, and 5,000 franc denominations. In 1986 the 10,000 franc banknote was introduced, which was common to both French Polynesia and New Caledonia.<ref>{{cite book | last1 = Linzmayer | first1 = Owen | title = The Banknote Book | chapter = French Pacific Territories | publisher = www.BanknoteNews.com | year = 2012 | location = San Francisco, CA | url = http://www.banknotebook.com}}</ref> These were followed, between 1992 and 1995, by new 500, 1,000, and 5,000 franc banknote designs common to all of the French Pacific Territories. One side of the banknote shows landscapes or historical figures from New Caledonia, the other from French Polynesia. In January 2014, the IEOM issued a new series of banknotes, and the older notes were withdrawn from circulation on 30 September of that year (they can be exchanged indefinitely at IEOM offices).<ref>[http://banknotenews.com/files/750f5bf394011d7587019b71f3759629-2765.php French Pacific Territories new notes to be introduced 20.01.2014] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131029184557/http://banknotenews.com/files/750f5bf394011d7587019b71f3759629-2765.php |date=2013-10-29 }} BanknoteNews.com. 22 October 2013.
