Fiji's 1995 note series followed the country's return to Commonwealth membership in 1997 — though the notes themselves predate that restoration, issued while Fiji remained outside the Commonwealth following the coups of 1987. Elizabeth II continued to appear on Fijian currency throughout that period despite the political rupture, an arrangement that reflected the Reserve Bank's decision to maintain design continuity rather than undertake a costly reissue program mid-series.
De La Rue printed the full series at their Gateshead facility during this period, not the London address sometimes cited from the plate credits.
