By 1972, the Republic of Vietnam's inflation pressures had pushed demand for higher denomination notes to the point where the 1000 Đồng — once considered an extraordinary sum — was moving through daily commerce with some regularity. Thomas De La Rue handled the printing, as they did for much of the series, producing a note whose security specification was already conservative for its time: a single watermark, no security thread.
The note's short useful life is worth noting. The Fall of Saigon in April 1975 rendered the entire South Vietnamese currency system void almost overnight, and subsequent communist-administered exchange programs were deliberately restrictive, capping redemptions at levels that made large denominations like this essentially worthless in the transition.
