| Opmerkingen |
Pakistan's Haj notes were a parallel currency issued exclusively for Muslim pilgrims travelling to Mecca — they could not be used domestically and were non-convertible back into Pakistani rupees, functioning more as a pilgrimage voucher than a circulating banknote. The scheme was designed to control foreign exchange outflows at a time when Pakistan's reserves were under persistent strain.
Thomas De La Rue printed the series in London across a span of two decades, though individual print runs within the 1951–1971 window are poorly documented. The long issuance period means significant variation in paper quality and ink density exists across survivors, though no formally catalogued varieties have been established for this denomination.
Withdrawn when the Haj subsidy structure changed in the early 1970s.
