Ceylon's Government Currency Notes — as opposed to Central Bank issues, which came later — were administered directly by the colonial Treasury throughout this period. The 50 Rupee denomination was the highest value in the Government of Ceylon series, meaning these circulated primarily in commercial and interbank contexts rather than retail trade. Survival rates are poor; high-value colonial notes of this era were routinely redeemed and pulped rather than hoarded.
De La Rue's involvement was standard for British colonial currency of the period, though the Government of Ceylon relationship with TDLR predated this series by several decades.
