| Comments |
Pakistan Security Printing Corporation's domestic production of this series was a deliberate policy decision — earlier Pakistani notes had been printed abroad, and the shift to Karachi-produced currency was tied to post-1971 efforts to rebuild institutional infrastructure after the loss of East Pakistan. The PSPC facility in Karachi had been progressively taking over production through the 1970s, and this series represents part of that consolidation.
The P#29 ran across a notably long window, with signature varieties corresponding to successive State Bank governors — a useful dating tool since the notes carry no individual date of printing.
