De La Rue's Gateshead facility — formerly the old Portals paper mill operation rebranded under De La Rue Currency — has been the dominant supplier to Liberia's central bank for several series running. The $100 is the highest denomination in Liberia's current polymer-adjacent cotton paper series, issued during a period when the Liberian dollar was under significant depreciation pressure, with the USD/LRD rate deteriorating sharply through 2021–2022.
Pick 41 carries only a basic security thread and watermark — modest protection for a high-denomination note in a country where counterfeit vulnerability has historically been a genuine operational concern for the CBL.
