| Opmerkingen |
Zambia's independence on 24 October 1964 created an immediate practical problem: the country needed its own currency before the Rhodesia and Nyasaland pound — still the circulating medium — could be phased out. This note was part of the first Bank of Zambia issue, printed by De La Rue and released within weeks of independence, making it one of the earliest physical expressions of the new state's separate monetary identity.
The series was short-lived. Zambia decimalized in January 1968, replacing the pound with the kwacha at a rate of two kwacha to the pound, and these notes were withdrawn promptly. Four years of potential circulation is the absolute maximum for any surviving example.
