The Nigerian fifty-naira note ( 50 or NGN 50) is a denomination of the Nigerian currency. When the note was introduced in October of 1991, it was the banknote with the highest denomination in Nigeria at the time. The front of the note features four portraits of ordinary Nigerians: three men representing the major ethnic groups (Hausa, Igbo, and Yoruba) and a woman symbolising the Middle Belt. While the back features a depiction of three fishermen at work, symbolizing Nigeria's agriculture and industry, often with a catch of fish, representing hard work and economic activity, in rural areas
