| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central vignette presents the minaret of the Malé Hukuru Miskiy (Old Friday Mosque), the oldest mosque in the Maldives, constructed in 1656 and located in Malé, Kaafu Atoll. The architecture is rendered in fine detail against a decorative geometric underprint characteristic of Islamic artistic tradition. Inscriptions in Thaana and Latin scripts give the denomination and issuing authority. |

| Opmerkingen |
The Maldives switched to polymer substrate for this series as part of a broader regional trend among island and coastal nations where humidity and salt air degrade cotton-paper notes at an accelerated rate — a practical engineering decision as much as a security one. Thomas De La Rue had been producing Maldivian currency since the 1980s, making this a continuation of a long-standing contract rather than a competitive tender result.
P#28 lists only a watermark among security features, which is notably sparse for a polymer issue — most contemporaneous De La Rue polymer notes incorporated clear window devices or optically variable elements. Whether additional unrecorded features exist on circulating examples remains a cataloging gap.
