Malta was still a British colony when this note was issued — independence came in September 1964, meaning P#26 was printed and circulated under Crown rule. The Bradbury Wilkinson contract was a holdover from earlier colonial issues, and the firm's New Malden facility had been handling British imperial paper for decades by this point.
The watermark construction on this series is relatively simple by Bradbury Wilkinson's standards. Post-independence issues would eventually transition to the Central Bank of Malta, making the 1963 Government of Malta pound one of the last in the colonial sequence.
