| Opmerkingen |
The 1996 UAE dirham series, of which this is the highest denomination in general circulation at the time, arrived during a period when the Central Bank was systematically upgrading its security architecture after counterfeit concerns plagued Gulf-region currencies through the late 1980s and early 1990s. De La Rue's involvement was consistent across multiple issues — the UAE has maintained a remarkably stable relationship with a small number of trusted printers rather than switching suppliers as neighboring states sometimes did.
The kinegram strip on this denomination was among the earlier applications of that technology on a Gulf-state high-value note, predating its adoption by several regional central banks by a few years.
