Opmerkingen

Burma's 1965 currency reform replaced the kyat notes issued under the Union Bank with a new series tied directly to the revolutionary government's Socialist Programme Party, which had seized power in Ne Win's 1962 coup. The People's Bank of Burma was itself a creation of that coup — the old central banking structure was dismantled almost immediately after the military takeover.

Security Banknote Company, the Chicago-based firm, printed this series. A print run just over twelve million is modest by regional standards, and attrition from Burma's largely cash-dependent rural economy was high.
