Comments

The P#100 series spans a decade of issue, which in Iraqi terms means it survived the ISIS insurgency at its peak, the liberation of Mosul, and the collapse of the dinar to historic lows against the dollar. The Central Bank kept this denomination in continuous production through all of it — a quiet indicator of how badly high-denomination notes were needed as inflation eroded smaller values into irrelevance.

The "Printed" figures in the catalog data appear to reference an unrelated 19th-century source and should be disregarded for this issue.
