Pick 14 belongs to the first series of Saudi banknotes ever issued — SAMA didn't begin circulating paper currency until 1961, replacing the earlier Saudi Arabian Currency Board notes and the silver riyal system that had been the backbone of everyday commerce. The decision to centralize monetary authority under SAMA had been formalized in 1952, but issuing a full fiduciary currency took nearly a decade to execute.
Thomas De La Rue handled the entire series, a common arrangement for newly structured Gulf monetary authorities at the time. The watermark security on these early issues is relatively simple by later standards, and genuine specimens sometimes show uneven ink distribution in the intaglio areas — a known characteristic of the first print runs, not damage.
