100 000 Livres

Lebanon's 100,000 Livres was, at the time of issue, the highest denomination the Banque du Liban had ever put into circulation — a direct consequence of hyperinflation during the civil war years, which had pushed the Lebanese pound to roughly 2,000 per US dollar by the early 1990s. The denomination that would have seemed absurd in 1975 had become a practical necessity by 1994.

BA International, the Montreal-based security printer, handled production. The firm printed Lebanese notes throughout the post-war reconstruction period, though their involvement with Banque du Liban predates the conflict by some years.
