5 Krónur Landsbanki Íslands, green

Bradbury Wilkinson printed this series for Landsbanki Íslands during a period when Iceland was navigating post-war foreign exchange controls and a chronically overvalued króna — conditions that kept denominations like this one in heavy everyday use through the early 1950s. The designer, Jón Thorleifsson, was one of the few Icelandic artists directly involved in shaping the visual identity of the national currency, an unusual degree of domestic input for a note produced entirely abroad.

P#32 was superseded when the 1957 series introduced new security printing and revised iconography. The green colorway distinguishes it cleanly from the near-contemporary brown 5 Krónur issues within the same Bradbury Wilkinson contract.
