This new series of notes, all dated 2016 were released to the public for circulation on 19.12.2016. The theme for this new series is Indonesia National Heroes Series. Each note depicts a national hero on the front, with two for the 100,000 Rupiah denomination. On the back, the designs are national parks and native dancers.
