Burundi gained independence in 1962, and the Banque du Royaume du Burundi — a royalist institution under Mwami Mwambutsa IV — operated for only a few years before the 1966 coup abolished the monarchy and prompted a complete currency replacement. Notes from this brief window are consequently scarce in any grade, simply because the series had a short issuance life and the successor republic wasted little time demonetizing them.
Thomas De La Rue handled printing for numerous newly independent African states in this period, often working from designs commissioned in London before the issuing infrastructure existed on the ground.
