| Comments |
The Czech National Bank's 1000 Kč note has been issued in multiple dated series since the currency's introduction in 1993, with progressive security upgrades applied at each revision. The 2008 date marks a significant security enhancement phase, adding colour-shifting ink to a denomination that had already carried a holographic stripe since earlier printings — a response to increasingly sophisticated counterfeiting attempts documented across Central Europe in the mid-2000s.
Státní tiskárna cenin, the state security printer in Prague, has handled Czech banknote production throughout the entire post-Czechoslovak period, giving this series an unusually consistent production provenance across fifteen-plus years of issues.
