UAE: Old banknotes are being replaced with brand new ones in the denominations of AED10, AED20 and AED100.
Last year, the UAE Central Bank introduced new features for the AED100 note, replacing the Dubai Trade Centre with the Shaikh Zayed Bridge in Abu Dhabi.
UAE President Shaikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan declared 2018 the Year of Zayed in the UAE to mark 100 years since the birth of the late founding father Shaikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.
The backside of the AED100 bill is characterised by a colour-changing security feature.
When the note is tilted, the colour shifts from green to blue and shows a bar of light moving from top to bottom. The numeral 100 in Arabic is also integrated in this particular feature.
The words “Year of Zayed” with the image of the late founding father is also printed at the top right-hand side.
Near the centre of the bill, the colour shifting security thread has been replaced with an advanced Galaxy three-dimensional security thread.
When the user tilts the bill, the colour changes from green to blue and a three-dimensional movement will be noticeable within the enhanced circular element.
