The 1993 100 Pula was issued during a period when Botswana's economy, buoyed by diamond revenues from the Orapa and Jwaneng mines, was among the fastest-growing in the world — a fiscal position the Bank of Botswana was keen to reinforce through a well-produced high-denomination note. Thomas De La Rue's involvement was a deliberate choice; the printer had handled Botswana's notes since independence, and continuity of production was itself a statement of institutional stability.
P#16 is the only watermark-secured note in the series without a security thread, a detail that made it increasingly vulnerable to sophisticated reproduction by the late 1990s and contributed to its relatively short circulation lifespan before revised issues superseded it.
