| Opmerkingen |
The Bank of Jamaica opened in 1961, a year before independence, giving the new state an institutional framework ready before the political transition was complete. This note falls under the Legal Tender Law of 1960 — hence the L.1960 dating — even though it was physically issued a decade later. Jamaica had been using Jamaican dollars only since 1969, when the dollar replaced the Jamaican pound at a two-to-one conversion, so P#57 represents the very earliest phase of the dollar series.
The "small guilloche" designation distinguishes this from a later plate variant with a larger guilloche pattern — a minor but catalogueable die change that De La Rue made during the run.
