10 Pounds (2nd issue)

Libya's second banknote series followed quickly after independence, with Bradbury Wilkinson producing the notes at their New Malden works — the same facility responsible for currency contracts across much of the postcolonial world in this period. The Bank of Libya itself had only been established in 1956, replacing the National Bank of Libya as the country's central monetary authority.

The P#32 carries a simple watermark as its sole security feature, reflecting the relatively modest anti-counterfeiting standards common to many African and Middle Eastern issues of the early 1960s before the wider adoption of security threads.
