| Opmerkingen |
State Bank of India travellers cheques of this period were printed at the India Security Press in Nasik Road — the same facility responsible for Indian banknotes and passports — under tight government oversight. The YJ series designation points to a specific issuance block tied to the Calcutta circle, one of SBI's regional administrative divisions that managed its own cheque allocations separately from head office.
Specimen examples from this issue are considerably scarcer than cancelled or used counterparts. The 1979 date places this squarely in the period following India's Foreign Exchange Regulation Act of 1973, which imposed strict limits on how much currency travellers could carry abroad — travellers cheques were the prescribed workaround, making demand for this format unusually high during the late 1970s.
