El Club de la Moneda in Medellín is a numismatic society, and this 2013 polymer piece is a membership or commemorative token issue rather than a circulating banknote — a category that has grown steadily among Latin American collector clubs since polymer became accessible outside central bank procurement channels. Colombia was well-positioned for domestic polymer printing by this period, with Casa de Moneda de Colombia having developed significant security printing capacity.
Collector-club issues like this occupy an awkward catalog position: not scrip, not legal tender, not quite exonumia. The polymer substrate on a piece this size is the primary point of interest.
