A floral guilloche pattern derived from the cover of the periodical Fjölnir is incorporated into the underprint, alongside a facsimile of Hallgrímsson's handwritten poem Ferðalok (Journey's End) and the topographical silhouette of the volcano Skjaldbreiður. |

Iceland's highest denomination note when introduced, the 10,000 krónur was issued under the Law of 2001 as part of a broader modernization of the series that moved the currency onto hybrid substrate — a polymer-paper composite rather than full polymer, a compromise that retained familiar handling characteristics while improving durability and counterfeit resistance. Thomas De La Rue supplied the material and handled printing in London.
The design team pairing was unusual: Kristín Þorkelsdóttir brought Icelandic artistic direction while Stephen Alan Fairbairn contributed De La Rue's in-house technical design expertise — a division of labor common in De La Rue commissions but rarely credited so explicitly on the catalog record.
