Where & when
What's on the note
Front: Captain Pattimura (Thomas Matulessy, 1783–1817), Indonesian national hero from Maluku who led a rebellion against Dutch colonial rule in 1817. He fought to resist the forced cultivation system and Dutch monopoly over spice trade in the Moluccas; captured and executed by the Dutch, he became a symbol of anti-colonial resistance. The note bears the national emblem of Indonesia (Garuda Pancasila) at upper right, the 2013 issue date, and signatures of Governor Darmin Nasution and Deputy Governor Hartadi A. Sarwono.
Back: Traditional outrigger boats (perahu) sailing in the waters of the Banda Islands, Maluku province, heart of the historic Spice Islands that were the center of global nutmeg and mace trade. The volcanic mountainous coastline represents the Banda archipelago, historically significant as the site of Pattimura's resistance against Dutch colonial forces and the focal point of European competition for spice trade control from the 16th to 19th centuries.

Background & history
This note is part of the 2013 Heroes Series issued by Bank Indonesia, which replaced the 2004 series. Printed date is clearly shown as '2013 DEWAN GUBERNUR' (Board of Governors 2013). The series featured Indonesian national heroes and ran from 2013 until withdrawn on December 30, 2016, when it was replaced by the 2016 series that introduced polymer substrate technology. The 1000 rupiah denomination honors Captain Pattimura's legacy in the struggle for independence. Signatures match the governorship of Darmin Nasution (2010–2013). This paper-based series represented the final generation of traditional Indonesian banknotes before the polymer transition. Serial prefix 'KIY' is a standard block identifier for this print run.
