Turkmenistan's 2020 100 Manat marks the 25th anniversary of the country's permanent neutrality status, recognized by the United Nations in 1995 under Saparmurat Niyazov — one of only a handful of nations to hold that formal UN designation. The neutrality theme is a recurring fixture in Turkmen state iconography, deployed heavily by both Niyazov and his successor Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow as a cornerstone of official national identity.
De La Rue produced the note on cotton substrate with a security package typical of their mid-tier sovereign commissions. The second manat, introduced in 2009 at a 1:5000 conversion rate, remains tightly controlled and is not freely convertible — which limits the practical circulation reach of commemorative high-denomination issues like this one.
