| Opmerkingen |
Tibet's government printed these entirely by hand using woodblocks — the same technique used for religious texts in the monasteries — making each note subtly unique in ink weight and impression depth. The Lhasa printing operation was rudimentary by any contemporary standard, and the resulting paper money reflected it: variation between individual notes of the same denomination can be striking.
The 10 Srang was the highest denomination in regular circulation for much of this series' life, used primarily for large transactions in the Lhasa market and for government payments. Cotton rag stock was sourced locally, and the paper itself tends to be thicker and softer than equivalent Asian government issues of the period.
Tibet had no central bank — issuance was handled directly by the Tibetan Finance Office, the Tsikhang.
