100 złotych note
The Polish 100 Złotych note is a denomination of Polish currency. With over a billion banknotes of this denomination in circulation as of the end of 2023, it is the most widely circulating banknote.[1]
History
[edit]The note was issued in 19 denominations, by the National Bank of Poland (Polish: Narodowy Bank Polski) and date its origins to 1528 as the "ducat," although there is debate about which polish coins was the first zloty.[2] The 20th-century zloty dates back to 1924.[2] The Zlotych notes were withdrawn from circulation in 1995.[3] The currency was devalued and worth very little after many years of high inflation in Poland during the communist period; when the new zloty currency was introduced in 1995, four zeros were dropped from the currency.[3]
