Notes:

Type 4 Polymer specimen notes were released to demonstrate the new note designs with the change from paper to a polymer composition. This was done to prolong the circulation life of the notes and to incorporate new security features making counterfeit note production extremely difficult. The notes are similar to the type 3 specimen notes in carrying an individual specimen serial number apart from the all zeros main number. However, the lettering for the word 'SPECIMEN' is much more subdued, appearing only in medium type below the denomination on the note, apparently so that the main design could be better examined and appreciated. The notes were distributed as individual notes in each of the 5 denominations - $5, $10, $20, $50 and $100.
