| Anmerkungen |
The Government of Seychelles issued paper currency directly rather than through a chartered bank — an arrangement common among smaller British Crown dependencies where establishing a full colonial bank branch was not economically viable. This 5 Rupees note from 1914 predates the eventual consolidation of Seychelles currency authority and belongs to an early series that was issued in very small quantities relative to the islands' limited monetary circulation needs.
The embossed seal as the sole security feature reflects both the era and the remote administrative reality — sophisticated intaglio printing was neither available locally nor warranted for a colony of this scale. Pick-listed as P#A3, suggesting provisional or retrospective cataloguing, which typically indicates surviving specimens are rare and documentation was assembled after the fact from scattered archival sources.
