Uganda's first post-independence banknotes replaced the East African Currency Board issues, and this 20 Shillings belongs to that founding series — Uganda having gained independence in October 1962 but taking several years to establish its own central bank and currency infrastructure. Bradbury Wilkinson, then operating from their New Malden works in Surrey, handled a significant volume of African post-colonial currency work during this period and brought consistent intaglio quality to the job.
The Pick 3 series is not especially rare, but earlier Uganda issues attract more collector attention than they once did, partly because the country's turbulent monetary history under Amin made pre-1971 material a natural stopping point.
