Assuming this is real, it would seem to be, it’s possible that you have an unreported version P-185. The 500 Piso notes N#213227 P-196 have segmented security threads. There is a 500 Piso P-185 dated 2001 with solid security thread. I would imagine it has a prefix that comes after your TR prefix. Nice find! Don’t lose it.

This is also a good reason to collect the prefixes of certain banknotes. They can help give details on unreported variations. 

Hello Peter,

Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with me!

Do you think it´s just a sub-type of the P-185 or a different version which I should add to the catalogue?

I saw that the Philippines issued many similar notes with small differnces only.

I hope your suppotion is correct an it´s an unlisted new type of this banknote.

I guess I´ll get in touch with the Referee for Filipino Banknotes.

Once again thank you!

Banknote Museum reports the P-185 2001 with a solid solid security thread but with different signatures.

Read my comments for the 100 Piso- the security threads are solid (embedded in the paper) in the earlier versions & become wider, segmented & visible in the later versions.

Thanks @Serial_Number_8 

What do you guys think is the best way  to solve it?

I guess it would be the best to add a new “100 Piso - Seal Type 5, Solid Narrow Security Thread" and modify the current one N#209525 into “100 Piso Seal Type 5, Wide segmented Security Thread”.

The same plan for the 500 Piso note aswell...

What do you guys think?

Have a nice Sunday.
