备注	Thomas De La Rue printed this series for the Reserve Bank of Vanuatu across a window that spans two distinct signature combinations — Virani/Molisa and then Tevi/Kalosil — making signature type the primary variable for collectors working this pick number. The transition reflects normal gubernatorial and ministerial turnover rather than any monetary crisis or reissue event. Vanuatu's currency has been independent since 1981, when the vatu replaced the New Hebrides franc at independence. The 1000 vatu denomination sits at the upper end of everyday transactional use in a small island economy heavily dependent on tourism and remittances.
