100 Dollars - Elizabeth II Man o' war

P#CS1 is a commemorative souvenir issue, not a circulating banknote — a distinction that matters. The Central Bank of Belize produced this piece in 1984 as a collector item, incorporating gold foil bonded into the substrate at a time when such novelty constructions were genuinely unusual and technically awkward to produce. The hybrid material was more gimmick than innovation, but it was early enough in the genre that it drew attention from philatelic and numismatic crossover collectors.

The "Man o' War" designation references the famous American thoroughbred, though the connection to Belize remains curiously thin — the naming appears tied to the broader Caribbean tourism promotional culture of the period rather than any direct historical link.
