| Comments |
The Falkland Islands' shift to polymer for this series follows a broader Commonwealth pattern, but the territory's circulating note stock has always been small by any measure — a population under 4,000 means print runs are negligible compared to virtually any other issuing authority in the world. De La Rue has supplied Falklands notes historically, though polymer production contracts have increasingly moved toward the Note Printing Australia and Canadian Bank Note Company orbit in recent decades.
Pick 20 is a current-issue note, and little documentary detail has yet entered the numismatic record.
