Opmerkingen

The State Bank of Ethiopia was itself a short-lived institution — established in 1942 after Haile Selassie's restoration, it was split in 1963 into the National Bank of Ethiopia and the Commercial Bank of Ethiopia, which means this series had a narrow window of possible issue dates regardless of what appears on individual specimens. Bradbury Wilkinson handled much of the bank's output during this period, a natural pairing given the firm's dominance in Commonwealth-adjacent and African central bank contracts through the 1950s.

The denomination in dual language — Birr and Ethiopian Dollars — reflects the transitional monetary nomenclature of the period, when Ethiopia was aligning its currency terminology with international usage for trade purposes while retaining the local Amharic designation.
