The L.1960 dating on Jamaican notes refers to the enabling legislation — the Bank of Jamaica Act 1960 — not the year of printing or issue. This series ran well into the 1970s under that frozen legal citation, which creates persistent misdating among collectors unfamiliar with the convention.
The "2 white numerals" variety distinguishes this note from the earlier issue by the appearance of unprinted, paper-colored denomination figures rather than solid-tinted ones — a minor but cataloged printing distinction within P#55.
