Anmerkungen	The Bahamas Monetary Authority was a transitional institution, created in 1968 ahead of full central banking — the Central Bank of the Bahamas didn't follow until 1974. This note belongs to that brief interregnum, issued by an authority that existed for only six years. De La Rue's work for Commonwealth territories in this period was prolific, and the BMA series shares production characteristics with dozens of contemporaneous colonial and near-independent issues. The watermark is the sole security layer — no security thread, which would become standard on later Bahamian issues.
