Uganda's shilling had collapsed so severely by the 1980s that 200 shillings was essentially worthless — yet by the late 1990s, following IMF-backed structural adjustment, the denomination carried genuine purchasing power again. The "non-magnetic" designation distinguishes this issue from a parallel steel-core variant, a split that emerged as the Bank of Uganda experimented with cheaper production materials during a period of fiscal constraint.
