The "Without white border" designation distinguishes this from the earlier P#50 issue — a modest design revision that collectors frequently overlook, leading to misidentification between the two types. BA International, successor identity to the British American Bank Note Company, handled Bahamian currency production for decades out of its Canadian facilities, and the relationship was long enough that subtle changes between printings are sometimes the only meaningful differentiators within a series.
The single security feature — a watermark alone — reflects the relatively modest anti-counterfeiting specification typical of early 1990s Caribbean low-denomination issues.
