Commenti	Uganda's first banknote series, issued following the establishment of the Bank of Uganda in 1966, replaced the East African Currency Board notes that had circulated across Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda as a shared currency. The split was politically driven — each newly independent state wanted control over its own monetary policy — and the new Ugandan shilling was introduced at par with the East African shilling to ease the transition. Bradbury Wilkinson printed the entire inaugural series from their New Malden facility, their standard arrangement for newly independent Commonwealth states through the 1960s. The "text under denomination" distinction from Pick 4 separates this as a secondary variety within the first issue.
