Opmerkingen

Bermuda's postwar currency reform finally replaced the colonial note series that had run largely unchanged since the 1920s, and this issue marked the transition to Elizabeth II as the named sovereign — a change that required new plate work at Bradbury Wilkinson rather than a simple overprint. The notes circulated alongside the earlier George VI series during the early part of the window, since the colonial administration was in no hurry to withdraw usable currency.

Bradbury Wilkinson printed virtually all British colonial small-denomination issues of this period from their New Malden facility, and the quality of intaglio work on the Bermuda Government series is notably finer than on many comparable Caribbean issues of the same decade.
