| Comments |
Suriname's central bank has issued paper notes with some regularity since the 2000s, but the 2024 series marks a deliberate continuation of paper rather than a shift to polymer — a choice that runs against the regional trend, with neighbors like Guyana having moved to polymer substrate years earlier. G+D Leipzig handled the contract, as they have for much of the recent Surinamese output.
The colour-shifting ink on this denomination places it at the top of the current circulating series, where the anti-counterfeiting spend is concentrated.
