The 200 Dirham denomination was introduced as part of Morocco's 2002 series, which marked a deliberate shift in the kingdom's approach to banknote security standards — modest by European central bank benchmarks of the time, but a meaningful upgrade over the preceding series. Bank Al-Maghrib had been under quiet pressure to modernize its currency infrastructure following a period of sustained counterfeiting activity in the late 1990s that had particularly targeted higher-value notes.
Pick 71 is occasionally found with ink offset on the reverse, a known production irregularity traceable to the printing schedule for this denomination.
