The P#218 series was introduced as part of the BSP's New Design Series, which began rolling out from 1985 onward, though this particular note continued in production well into the 2010s with only incremental security upgrades. The Security Plant Complex in Quezon City — one of the few central bank intaglio facilities in Southeast Asia operating continuously under government ownership — handled the full print run domestically, which was not always the case for earlier Philippine issues that relied on foreign security printers.
Polymer conversion for the 100-peso denomination was trialed and debated internally for years before the BSP ultimately committed to a full polymer shift announced in 2022, making paper examples from this period the final generation of the old substrate.
