Egypt introduced the 200 Pound denomination in 2007, making it the highest face value in regular circulation at the time — a response to inflation that had quietly eroded the purchasing power of the existing 100 Pound note. The denomination was controversial enough that initial public uptake was slow, with merchants in smaller towns reluctant to handle a note few customers could make change for.
The replacement note for the 27.06.2013 date is identifiable by the 999 serial prefix, a convention used by the CBE's in-house printing facility at Al-Haram for damaged or misprinted sheet substitutions. The flagged signature error for the December 2015 date is worth verifying against the actual signatory tenure before attribution.
