| Opmerkingen |
Saint Lucia's 1920 government currency issues — this 10 Shillings among them — were produced under the Colonial Treasury system, at a point when the island had no formal banking authority of its own capable of issuing notes. Thomas De La Rue handled the printing, as they did for the vast majority of British Caribbean colonial issues of this period.
Pick 2 is genuinely scarce. The small population of Saint Lucia meant issue quantities were low, and surviving examples in any condition are rarely encountered at auction.
