Tonga's first decimal currency notes were introduced in 1967 following the shift from pounds to pa'anga — a transition managed under Queen Taufa'ahau Tupou IV, who had succeeded his mother, Queen Sālote Tupou III, in 1965. This note's naming for Queen Sālote is a deliberate posthumous honour; she had died in Auckland while receiving treatment for an illness contracted, by most accounts, during her famous attendance at the 1953 coronation in London, where her warmth toward the crowds made her internationally recognized.
De La Rue handled the entire first decimal series, as they had the preceding pound notes.
