| Opmerkingen |
Cyprus was still a Crown Colony when this series was authorised, and the Government of Cyprus — rather than a central bank — remained the direct issuer of currency throughout the interwar period. De La Rue produced the plates in London, a relationship that had been continuous since the island's earliest colonial note issues. The ten shilling denomination sat at the bottom of the range, making it the note most likely to see heavy everyday use, and worn examples are genuinely more common than intact ones.
The 1933 dating marks the opening year of the series; notes were issued across several years under the same design, so precise dating depends on the manuscript date rather than the printed series year.
