Uzbekistan's 10,000 som note entered circulation as part of a broader redenomination effort that had been building since the early 2000s — the old 1,000 som had been the highest denomination for years, leaving Uzbeks routinely carrying thick bricks of notes for ordinary transactions. The 10,000 som helped compress that burden, though inflation had by then already eroded the purchasing power that made such high denominations necessary in the first place.
Cotton substrate was a deliberate choice for a note expected to see heavy daily use in a cash-dominant economy with limited banking penetration outside Tashkent.
