The Jordan 20 Dinar note is part of the Central Bank of Jordan's fourth banknote series, issued from 2002 onward and in circulation through 2021 before the introduction of the fifth series beginning in 2022. It is a green note bearing the image of the reigning monarch alongside Jerusalem's most iconic Islamic landmark, reflecting Jordan's Hashemite custodianship of the holy sites.
