| Comments |
The 50,000 Riel denomination has existed in Cambodian currency since 1998, positioned at the high end of everyday notes rather than as a collector or commemorative issue. Cambodia's economy remains substantially dollarized — US dollars circulate freely alongside Riels for large transactions — which has historically compressed demand for high-denomination Riel notes and kept many examples in comparatively light use.
Pick 61 represents the 2013 revision of the series, distinguished from earlier printings primarily through updated security specifications rather than any fundamental redesign.
