The "Ang Bagong Lipunan" — New Society — series was the paper currency of Marcos's authoritarian program declared following his 1972 proclamation of martial law. This note circulated across a period when the Philippine peso was under sustained devaluation pressure, particularly after the second oil shock of 1979 pushed the country's import-dependent economy into serious debt trouble.

Three signature combinations span the issue window, tracking successive Bangko Sentral governors under a presidency that never changed — Licaros, then Laya, then Fernandez. Fernandez was in the chair when the Marcos government collapsed in February 1986, making notes bearing his signature the terminal issue of the series.
