| 背面描述 | Intaglio vignette to the right of two Beisa oryx antelopes standing in grassland beside an oil derrick, representing South Sudan's natural resources. A large latent-image guilloche rosette occupies the centre-left, with microtext 'BANK OF SOUTH SUDAN' repeated in the background underprint. Denomination inscriptions 'Bank of South Sudan', 'Twenty Five', and 'South Sudanese Pounds' are printed in dark brown letterpress across the upper, middle, and lower panels respectively, flanked by numeral '25' at all four corners. |

South Sudan's independence on 9 July 2011 made it the world's newest country at the time, and the South Sudanese pound series — of which this is a part — had to be designed, printed, and ready for circulation within an extraordinarily compressed timeframe. Thomas De La Rue had prior experience printing for newly independent African states, which almost certainly explains the contract. The notes were introduced on 18 July 2011, just nine days after independence was formally declared.
P#8 is among the higher denominations in the inaugural series. Security provision is relatively modest for the period — watermark and thread only, with no optically variable ink — a cost-driven decision consistent with a government standing up a central bank from scratch.
