| 备注 |
The Falkland Islands 5 Shillings of 1901 is among the earliest documented government-issued paper currency for the colony, predating any formal local banking infrastructure. De La Rue produced the plate in London, as they did for dozens of British colonial dependencies at the turn of the century — reliable printers, predictable output, minimal fuss from the Colonial Office.
The islands' population at the time numbered only a few hundred, and the actual circulation demand for these notes would have been very low. Survival rate reflects that: not many were printed, not many were needed, and institutional record-keeping in Stanley was not robust. Pick catalogs it as A1 — the "A" prefix signaling an early or provisional listing, often meaning the editors were working from incomplete data.
