| Comments |
Haiti's shift to polymer for the 10 Gourdes came as part of a broader effort to cut replacement costs on a low-denomination note that circulated hard and wore out fast. De La Rue's polymer substrate extends note life significantly over cotton paper — a practical consideration for a country where the informal economy handles physical cash with intensity and banking infrastructure remains limited.
The transparent window is integral to the polymer base rather than inserted, which distinguishes it from the security threads found on the paper issues of the same series.
