The Government of Trinidad and Tobago currency notes of this period were colonial instruments issued under British authority, with De La Rue handling production in London — a firm that dominated British colonial currency contracts throughout the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. A $1,000 face value in 1914 was an extraordinary sum for the Caribbean; this was not retail money. These notes moved between merchants, estates, and banking houses, not across shop counters.
Surviving examples from the P#2 series are exceptionally rare. The denomination alone guaranteed low print runs and limited circulation, and wartime disruptions after mid-1914 further complicated distribution and recall cycles.
