Comments

Fiji's 2007 polymer-hybrid series was introduced partly in response to counterfeiting pressure on the earlier paper issues, and the $100 note — the highest denomination in regular circulation — was the most targeted. Thomas De La Rue's hybrid substrate at the time represented a transitional technology between conventional cotton-linen paper and full polymer, combining a polymer core with paper-like outer layers to retain machine compatibility while improving durability and counterfeit resistance.

P#114 was one of the last Fijian notes to carry Elizabeth II as the primary portrait before the series was retired following the 2006 military coup led by Frank Bainimarama — political circumstances that accelerated the redesign of the entire note family.
