Algeria's 2000 Dinar denomination has historically been the highest value circulating note in the country, and this 2022 issue marks the series' first appearance on a hybrid substrate — a polymer-cotton composite rather than pure polymer or pure cotton rag. The move was driven partly by durability concerns in high-value notes that circulate intensively in cash-heavy economies with limited card infrastructure, and partly by counterfeiting pressures that had affected earlier linen-based issues.
The security package is relatively robust for the region, incorporating colour-shifting ink alongside a holographic stripe — features absent from earlier Algerian high-denomination printings.
