| 备注 |
The Government of Seychelles issued this note directly — not through a colonial bank — a relatively uncommon arrangement that reflects the islands' sparse banking infrastructure in the interwar period. Thomas De La Rue printed the series in London under contract to the Crown Agents for the Colonies, the standard procurement route for smaller British dependencies that lacked the transaction volume to justify a chartered bank.
Surviving examples with dates toward the earlier end of the range are considerably scarcer; the series overlaps with the Depression years, when import contraction sharply reduced commercial activity on the islands and with it the demand for higher-denomination notes in everyday use.
