| Opmerkingen |
The Bank of the Philippine Islands was a private commercial bank operating under American colonial administration, not a central bank — making this note unusual in the broader context of 1920s–30s Pacific currency. The BEP in Washington printed the series, which accounts for the high engraving quality, but the notes circulated under Philippine Commonwealth-era conditions that were frequently rough on paper currency: tropical humidity, heavy use in rural markets, and wartime disruption after 1941 destroyed much of the surviving stock.
The "without rays" distinction separates this from the earlier P#16 variant and reflects a deliberate design modification to the seal, not a printing error.
