About this banknote
The Sveriges Riksbank issued the 100-kronor banknote (Pick 65) from 2001 to 2014. This series was introduced in 2001 to enhance security features, including a foil hologram and a new security strip, in response to a peak in counterfeiting around 2000.
The front of the banknote features Carl von Linné (Linnaeus) at the right, with a building in the background. The back depicts a bee pollinating flowers at the center. The watermark is a portrait of Carl von Linné. The first digit of the serial number corresponds to the last digit of the year of issue; for example, a serial number starting with '2' indicates the note was issued in 2002.
