100 Piso
Philippines · Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas
The 100 Piso New Generation Currency note features a portrait of President Manuel A. Roxas on the front, with Mayon Volcano and the whale shark (butanding) on the back, celebrating Philippine natural heritage. The 2021 print incorporates enhanced security threads with color-changing indigenous patterns and four tactile marks introduced in the 2020 redesign. The BSP's new corporate logo, redesigned in January 2021, was incorporated into banknotes starting with 2022-signature notes, so the 2021-dated note retains the prior logo.
