The earliest surviving documented note from the Falkland Islands, P#A1A predates the colony's formal currency ordinance and reflects a period when the islands' administration issued paper money largely as a practical solution to the near-total absence of coinage in circulation. De La Rue's involvement guaranteed professional execution, but the print run was almost certainly tiny — the Falklands' population at the time hovered around two thousand, and commercial activity was dominated by the Falkland Islands Company's internal credit systems, which reduced demand for government paper still further.
Survivorship is extremely poor. Fewer than a handful of authenticated examples are known to exist.
