Beschrijving keerzijde The entire reverse is occupied by a large central guilloche vignette of lathe-work design, rendered in steel-blue on a plain white ground. An elaborate oval medallion at centre displays an interlaced rosette pattern of intertwined loops, surrounded by concentric rings of fine engine-turned work. The oval is framed by acanthus scrolls, floral rosettes, and feathered foliage extending to the corners, executed in the intricate intaglio style typical of De La Rue security printing. No lettering appears on this side.

Opmerkingen

The Falkland Islands Currency Ordinance of 1899 established the pound on par with sterling, and that parity held without interruption through the entire P#8 series — an unusual monetary stability for a colonial dependency of this size. Thomas De La Rue produced the notes in London, as they had done for Falklands issues going back decades, the long print run spanning fifteen years reflecting just how slowly circulation stock was turned over in a territory with a population that never exceeded two thousand during this period.

The series was still current when Argentine forces occupied Stanley in April 1982. Notes in circulation at the time of the invasion are occasionally found with handling damage consistent with that period.
