Thomas De La Rue printed this series for the Royal Monetary Authority — Bhutan's central bank, established only in 1982 — during a period when the country was still largely cash-dependent and formal banking infrastructure was thin on the ground. The ngultrum itself had only been introduced in 1974, pegged at parity with the Indian rupee, a relationship that remains in place today and effectively meant these notes circulated alongside Indian currency rather than replacing it.
The date range reflects a long print run with minimal design revision, typical of De La Rue's work for smaller issuers where plate costs discouraged frequent updates.
