| Comments |
The "Bagong Lipunan" — New Society — overprint series was a direct product of Ferdinand Marcos's declaration of martial law in September 1972. The existing note designs were retained but rebranded to signal a clean break with the old republic, making these essentially political objects dressed as monetary instruments. Seal type 2 refers to the Bangko Sentral's second seal variant used during this transitional period, a detail that matters primarily to specialists sorting the chronology of the martial law issues.
Thomas De La Rue's involvement kept production quality consistent with pre-martial law Philippine notes — the same London contract, uninterrupted despite the constitutional upheaval in Manila.
