The 2006 series marked a significant redesign for Trinidad and Tobago's currency, introducing the holographic stripe to the higher denominations as the Central Bank moved to bring its notes in line with regional anti-counterfeiting standards that had been tightening across Caribbean issuing authorities through the early 2000s. De La Rue's involvement here is longstanding — the bank has used them almost continuously since independence in 1962.
P#50 is not a scarce note in any grade, but the holographic stripe on circulated examples frequently shows delamination along its upper edge, a known weakness in this particular production run.
