The 200 lempira banknote issued by the Central Bank of Honduras on November 6, 2023 pays tribute to Bertha Isabel Cáceres Flores, an iconic Honduran figure internationally recognized for her commitment to indigenous peoples' rights and environmental protection. A Lenca activist and co-founder of the Civic Council of Popular and Indigenous Organizations of Honduras (COPINH), she was the recipient of the prestigious Goldman Environmental Prize in 2015, before being assassinated in 2016. Her effigy on this banknote represents an official recognition by the Honduran State of her legacy.

This banknote belongs to the lempira currency family, Honduras's national currency, whose name itself refers to a Lenca indigenous chief who resisted Spanish colonization in the 16th century. The face value of 200 lempiras makes it a significant denomination in the Honduran monetary system.

The banknote features the security elements and graphic characteristics typical of contemporary monetary issues from the Central Bank of Honduras, incorporating modern technologies designed to prevent counterfeiting. The issue year 2023 places it in the most recent series of Honduran monetary production.

From a numismatic perspective, this banknote holds particular interest as the first Honduran denomination to feature Bertha Isabel Cáceres Flores, making it a historical document reflecting the evolution of national monetary iconography. It is part of a broader trend, observed in several Latin American countries, of highlighting female figures and personalities from indigenous peoples on official monetary media.
