| Comments |
The 200 Emalangeni is the highest denomination in Swaziland's circulating series and was introduced partly in response to the practical pressures of inflation eroding the utility of smaller notes in high-value transactions. G+D's Leipzig plant — one of the oldest continuously operating security printers in the world — produced the issue, and the color-shifting ink on this denomination marks it as the most security-intensive note in the series.
Majozi Sithole served as Central Bank Governor from 2006; Martin Dlamini as Deputy Governor. The two-signature format was consistent across the bank's issues of this period.
