Opmerkingen

Papua New Guinea's kina was introduced in 1975 when the country decoupled from the Australian dollar at independence. The Bank of Papua New Guinea managed the transition carefully, and the P#6 series ran across nearly a decade with two distinct signature combinations marking a change in finance ministry leadership — Morauta was replaced by Vulupindi for the 1988 issues, making that the short-run variant of the series.

Note Printing Australia's involvement reflects the close institutional ties carried over from the colonial period; the Reserve Bank of Australia had effectively administered PNG's currency infrastructure before independence.
