| Obverse description | The Bank of Guyana crest is centred on the face, flanked to the right by a map of Guyana illustrating mineral resources and to the left and right edges by a stylised flower vignette split across the note margins; a segmented security thread runs vertically between the crest and the map, with a gold optically variable device shield positioned to the right of the map. Two serial numbers in black are printed over a lilac-brown and purple multicoloured guilloche underprint — one vertically at the left margin and one horizontally at the upper right with ascending-size numerals. |

| Comments |
The P#35 series was introduced at the turn of the millennium as the Bank of Guyana's highest denomination, a response to accumulated inflation that had eroded the purchasing power of earlier notes over the preceding two decades — Guyana's currency had lost enormous ground during the 1980s and early 1990s under exchange controls and balance-of-payments crises that made the old ceilings practically meaningless. De La Rue's involvement was continuous across multiple Guyanese series, giving the country's note production an unusual degree of external dependency for the entire modern period.
The optically variable device places this issue firmly in De La Rue's post-1998 security upgrade program applied across several Caribbean and South American clients simultaneously.
