Ghana's 1965 note series was the country's second currency issue, replacing the transitional pound-based system that had carried over from the colonial period after independence in 1957. The cedi was introduced at a rate of 100 pesewas, structured to break cleanly from the old shilling denominations — a deliberate administrative choice under Nkrumah's government to assert a fully independent monetary identity.
Thomas De La Rue printed the series in London, as they did for much of Anglophone Africa in this period. Within a year of issue, Nkrumah was deposed in the February 1966 coup, and the new military government eventually recalled and replaced the series — sharply limiting the window of active circulation for these notes.
