| Comments |
The 1975 series marked a period when Bank Indonesia was consolidating its reliance on Perum Peruri, the state security printing works established in 1971 to reduce dependence on foreign printers — a deliberate policy shift that had begun with earlier Sukarno-era notes contracted to foreign firms including De La Rue and Joh. Enschedé. This note belongs squarely to the domestically produced generation that followed.
Watermark-only security was modest even by mid-1970s standards, and the P#113 series was eventually superseded by more complex issues as Indonesia's economy expanded through the oil boom years.
