The Welsh Black Sheep Company Limited was a short-lived nationalist venture that issued this note in 1969 as a political statement rather than a functional currency — it was never legal tender and was designed primarily for sale to supporters of Welsh independence. The timing was deliberate: 1969 was the year of the investiture of Charles as Prince of Wales at Caernarfon, an event that intensified nationalist sentiment and prompted several symbolic gestures from Plaid Cymru and affiliated cultural organisations.
The duty stamp is the detail that gives it away as a serious, if eccentric, attempt at legitimacy — someone went to the trouble of paying stamp duty on a novelty.
