1991 - 100 Nuevos Soles banknote

The security thread is a plastic strip that is inserted into the paper. Hold the banknote up to a light source and the text PERU 100 will appear crisp without any irregularities. Additionally, if you look closely a hologram appears with a map of Peru with changing color (Banknotes issued before 2011).

On the front there is a circle, actually an Inca design depicting the head of a Puma. On the back there is a ring and the center part is white. Holding the banknote up to a light source both images should line-up perfectly (Banknotes issued before 2011).

By placing the banknote horizontally in front of the eye, start tilting it up/down. The value of 100 should appear (Banknotes issued before 2011).

By using a magnifying glass the micro lettering PERU should appear repeatedly in the number 100 (bill value) - for Banknotes issued before 2011.

Around the personality on the banknote is a shadow created by using micro lettering of the word PERU (Banknotes issued before 2011).

When tilting the banknote up/down a reflective stripe becomes visible partially covering the face of the personality. Within the strip appear repeatedly the 100 (value) and BCRP (Banco Central Reserva Peru) - for Banknotes issued before 2011.

Below the National Emblem (right side) is the value of the banknote printed with optical variable ink. By placing the banknote horizontally in front of the eye, start tilting it up/down. The 100 changes from fuchsia to gold-green (Banknotes issued before 2011).
