| Opmerkingen |
Papua New Guinea adopted polymer for its 50 Kina well ahead of most Pacific neighbours, and Note Printing Australia — the Reserve Bank of Australia's security printing subsidiary in Melbourne — supplied the substrate and production. The transparent window on polymer notes of this generation was integrated directly into the substrate rather than applied as a patch, a distinction that matters when authenticating worn examples where applied features can delaminate.
Two signature combinations exist across the print run, reflecting a change in Bank governor between 2008 and 2012. Loi Bakani replaced Wilson Kamit in 2009, making the 2012 pairing the more commonly encountered of the two.
