The Bermuda Monetary Authority replaced the Bermuda Government as the issuing body in 1969, giving the island — constitutionally not a central bank jurisdiction in the conventional sense — its own currency administration while the dollar remained pegged at par to the US dollar, a rate maintained without interruption to this day. De La Rue handled the entire series through these years, as they had done for Bermuda since the mid-twentieth century.
P#42 carries only a watermark among its security features, modest by the standards De La Rue was applying to other clients in the early 1990s. The 1993–1997 date span reflects sequential signature varieties rather than a redesign.
