Comments

The Bank of Guyana's 1000-dollar denomination was introduced as the country's highest-value note, a reflection of the cumulative inflation that had steadily eroded the purchasing power of lower denominations since the 1980s. De La Rue's production for this series is technically competent but unremarkable — the firm has printed Guyanese currency for decades, and this issue follows the same manufacturing profile as its predecessors.

The OVD (optically variable device) strip is worth noting: its inclusion on a denomination from a small Caribbean economy signals how widely TDLR pushed anti-counterfeiting upgrades across its client base during this period, regardless of the note's actual counterfeiting risk profile.
