Decorative guilloche rosettes in purple and orange occupy the left margin, while a spiralling security-design tower element appears to the right. The denomination is repeated in large numerals and lettering across the upper and lower fields. |

| Comments |
Crane Currency's contract for Guyana's higher denominations has quietly shifted the production history of this series away from its earlier De La Rue association. The 1000-dollar note in this format is among the more recent high-value paper issues from Georgetown, at a moment when most regional central banks have been moving toward polymer substrates — Guyana has held to paper here.
TBB#124a is a first-prefix catalog entry, suggesting this is the earliest recorded signature or date variety for the type. Worth confirming against the actual prefix letter before cataloging further.
