5000 Dollars

Oberthur Fiduciaire printed this series for Guyana beginning in 2013, making it one of the higher-denomination notes in a currency that has faced persistent inflationary pressure — the Guyanese dollar had lost roughly 98% of its value against the US dollar between independence and the early 2000s, long before this note entered circulation. The 5000-dollar denomination was introduced partly in response to that accumulated erosion.

The security package is modest for a high-value note: watermark and security thread without optically variable ink or color-shifting features. Oberthur's output for smaller economies frequently reflects client budget constraints rather than any technical limitation on the printer's part.
