| Comments |
The Canadian Bank Note Company produced all notes in this 1973 series, which marked a deliberate shift away from the Israeli-printed issues that had preceded it. The choice of an Ottawa printer reflected both capacity and security considerations during a period when the Bank of Israel was expanding its note production relationships internationally.
Paul Kor and Adrian Senger — the engravers credited on this note — were CBC staff engravers whose work appeared across multiple Commonwealth and international issues of the period. The same year this note entered circulation, the Yom Kippur War broke out in October, accelerating inflationary pressures that would eventually render the pound series obsolete; Israel replaced the pound with the shekel in 1980.
