| Descripción del anverso | Brown on green underprint. An elaborate arabesque and volute border frames the note, with the Suriname coat of arms at centre — two indigenous figures flanking a medallion containing a sailing vessel, surmounted by a crown and accompanied by the national motto ribbon inscribed JUSTITIA PIETAS FIDES. The issuer name, place, and date appear in the central text block in Dutch letterpress, with the denomination TWEE HONDERD GULDEN in bold Gothic script; numeral 200 occupies all four corners. A lower vignette presents an allegorical harbour scene evoking the first European arrival in Suriname, with figures exchanging offerings on a beach, cargo unloaded in the foreground, and a sailing ship at anchor in the bay beyond. Two manuscript signatures of the Director and Director-President appear in black at the foot of the note. |

De Surinaamsche Bank was established in 1865 as a private institution with the exclusive right to issue banknotes in Dutch Suriname — an arrangement that persisted well into the twentieth century. At 200 Gulden, this is the highest denomination in the P#49 series, which already tells you something about its intended audience: not wage earners, but merchants and plantation owners conducting large transactions in a colonial economy still substantially organized around sugar and, increasingly, gold extraction.
Enschedé of Haarlem had been the dominant Dutch banknote printer since the eighteenth century, and their watermarked papers were considered among the more difficult to counterfeit in the region. The long print window — over four decades — means date variants within this type require careful attention when cataloging.
