Philippine five peso note

• 1903: Philippine Islands issued silver certificates.[2] Features a portrait of William McKinley.
• 1908: Banco Español Filipino issued notes.[3]
• 1920: BPI issued notes.[4]
• 1936: PNB issued notes.[5]
• 1937: Philippine Commonwealth issued treasury certificate. Features the portraits of William McKinley and George Dewey on both sides of the obverse.[6] This series were later overprinted with the word "VICTORY" on the reverse after the liberation of the Philippines under Japanese rule in 1944.[7]
• 1942: Japanese government issued series.[8] Features a farmer in a forest on the right of the obverse, with the number "5" on the center. Another version, this time featuring the Rizal Monument on the right of the obverse, was released in 1944. The banknotes ceased to be legal tender after the liberation.

Aguinaldo first appeared on the five peso bill upon the release of the New Design series notes in 1985.[9]

Features the portraits of Marcelo H. Del Pilar and Graciano Lopez-Jaena, two important figures of the Propaganda movement before the Philippine revolution, on the obverse. The reverse features the official newspaper of the propaganda movement, the La Solidaridad.[10]

In 1967, Andres Bonifacio replaced the portraits of Del Pilar and Lopez-Jaena. The note is now predominantly green in color. On the reverse, it now features the scenario of how to be a member of the Katipunan through signing a contract by their own blood. The design of the obverse was later revised, the font for the text Republika ng Pilipinas and Limang Piso was changed, the color of the portrait of Bonifacio was changed from brown to green and geometric lines were added on the sides and the watermark area of the bill. This design was later used when the Bagong Lipunan series was released in 1973.[11]

In 1973, the "Ang Bagong Lipunan" text was added and was overprinted on the watermark area.[12]

In 1985, the bill was completely redesigned and Emilio Aguinaldo replaced Bonifacio in this series.[9] The NHCP historical marker in the Barasoain Church (indicating the foundation of the First Philippine Republic, which Aguinaldo became its president) along with a cannon can be seen on the right side of the obverse. On the reverse, a scene from the Declaration of the Philippine Independence is featured. This was previously featured on the reverse of the Ang Bagong Lipunan series two peso banknote.[13]

After the creation of the "Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas", its new logo was incorporated on all the New Design series bills in 1993.

In 1996, the printing of this banknote was stopped after the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas released the new ₱5 coin denomination that coincided the launching of the Improved Flora and Fauna series coins[14] and due to the release of the BSP series ₱5 coin one year earlier, in which the bills also included in this series from 1993 to 1996. Because of this, it is the only banknote in the New Design/BSP series that did not add a year mark at the bottom of the denomination value located at the upper left corner of the obverse since the year of production of a banknote was only added in 1998 (1997 for the ten peso banknotes), 1–2 years after the production of the five peso banknotes became obsolete. Existing banknotes remained legal tender and were demonetized[15] on December 29, 2017 after the release of the New Generation series banknotes in 2010.[16]
