| Aanvullende informatie |
Cyprus's pre-decimal mil coinage was introduced in 1955, the year the EOKA campaign for enosis — political union with Greece — began in earnest. The colonial administration pressed ahead with this new currency series regardless, a decision that would prove short-lived: the island gained independence in 1960, and the entire Elizabeth II colonial coinage was rendered obsolete within a few years of striking.
