There are many other fake notes in China. Just becareful and check the green colour 100 number which is in 2 different colour tone at different angle. Also the real notes are more rough on the Mao Zhetong colar part.

PS: China fake notes have 'water mark' too. Goodluck!

Bro binbin81, 5 upz for you.

You'll need to check whenever you come across 100 china notes. And i mean check every RMB100 note. Even money changer there will give you fake ones if you're not careful.

One more trick i learned from PRC is to flip the note near your ear. You should hear a clear 'piak piak' sound. Fake note dont have this kinda paper quality. Its really disturbing if you gotten a fake note. Cant really do anything but only to keep it for sample checking

i do not think there is any 1000 rmb notes.
As for changing of rmb for feb trip.(to be cfm)

To be safe, would just go to my regular $$ changer.
