| Opmerkingen |
Guinea's 1960 independence from France left its monetary system in immediate disarray. The country had withdrawn from the CFA franc zone in 1960 under Sékou Touré, an abrupt break that required a functioning currency almost overnight. Thomas De La Rue was the printer of choice for newly independent African states throughout this period, handling several such emergency commissions simultaneously.
The P#14 is scarce in any grade — early Guinean notes circulated heavily in an economy with few banking alternatives, and the humid West African climate was not kind to paper stock of this vintage.
