| Comments |
Kazakhstan's 1000 Tenge series has gone through several iterations since the tenge was introduced in November 1993, when Kazakhstan exited the Soviet ruble zone — one of the last Central Asian republics to do so. The P#45 is a 2014-dated revision within a long-running denomination, updated primarily to incorporate improved security specifications rather than as a response to any specific counterfeiting incident or monetary event.
Cotton substrate with watermark and thread is the baseline for Kazakhstani notes of this period. Nothing technically unusual about this example's production profile.
