Commenti	The 1970 Bermuda Government series replaced the old pounds-shillings-pence denominations following Bermuda's decimal conversion on 6 February of that year — the same date chosen to coincide with Bermuda Day. De La Rue had printed Bermuda's colonial issues for decades, and the transition was managed without interruption to supply. This note belongs to the first decimal series issued under the Bermuda Government rather than a central bank, an arrangement that persisted until the Bermuda Monetary Authority took over issuance in 1974. The watermark is the sole mechanical security feature — no security thread, no fluorescent inks. By the standards of early 1970s Caribbean and Atlantic territory issues, that was not unusual, but it made the series a relatively straightforward target for counterfeiting.
