Aruba separated from the Netherlands Antilles on 1 January 1986 under a "Status Aparte" arrangement — a political compromise that stopped short of full independence but gave the island its own government, its own currency, and its own central bank. This note was among the first issues of that new institution, printed by Enschedé in Haarlem, the same firm that had been producing Dutch guilder notes for generations. The choice was deliberate: continuity of quality and trust at a moment when a brand-new currency needed both.
Pick #1 is the lowest-numbered entry in the entire Aruban catalog. That alone makes it a natural target for type collectors.
