The Bank of the Gold Coast had an exceptionally short operational life — the institution was established in 1953 and dissolved when Ghana achieved independence in 1957, at which point the Bank of Ghana took over. Notes issued under this authority were in circulation for at most four years, and this 5 Pound denomination would have represented a substantial sum in a colony where wage labour was still denominated in shillings. High-value notes circulate less, get hoarded more, and survive in better condition precisely because ordinary people rarely spent them casually.
Bradbury Wilkinson's New Malden facility handled a significant portion of British colonial currency printing through this period, and their intaglio work on Gold Coast issues is technically accomplished. The series was rendered obsolete when Ghana decimalized and introduced the Cedi in 1965.
