| Opmerkingen |
The Government of Mauritius issued this note under direct colonial authority rather than through a chartered bank — an arrangement that distinguished Mauritius from many contemporary British colonial territories where private banks held note-issuing rights. The long date range reflects a practice of printing notes in bulk and issuing them gradually over years, not a series of distinct printing runs.
Dick and Shean served consecutive roles as Colonial Treasurer; a note bearing both signatures together has not been documented, and surviving examples will carry one or the other depending on when it entered circulation.
