Zambia redenominated its currency in 2013, lopping three zeros off the kwacha and issuing a fresh family of notes — this 5 Kwacha belongs to that post-redenomination series. The printer data listed here is contradictory and likely reflects catalog aggregation errors; attributing a single note to Goznak, Oberthur, and Enschedé simultaneously is not credible, and the "30.04.1945" print date is plainly erroneous for a 2015-series note.
Watermark-only security on the 5 Kwacha reflects its low face value — roughly under one US dollar at most exchange rates during the series run.
