Cayman Islands Currency Board one dollar issued note dated 1974, Pick 5e, serial prefix A/6 number 105218, Queen Elizabeth the Second portrait and Cayman Islands coat of arms on the obverse, marine vignette on the reverse, PMG 67 Exceptional Paper Quality holder

Cayman Islands 1974 - Cayman Islands Currency Board 1 Dollar Issued Note (Pick 5e)

This issued one dollar note of the Cayman Islands Currency Board belongs to the long-running series authorized under the Cayman Islands Currency Law of 1974, a framework that formalized the islands’ modern paper currency system while maintaining the Currency Board model of disciplined issuance. Although the note is dated 1974 in the series structure, the PMG label attribution indicates the later printing date as not dated 1985, reflecting a practice common to currency board emissions: a stable design and legal base date, paired with later printings as replacement and demand required during successive administrative terms. The obverse is built around a deliberately conservative composition typical of late twentieth century Thomas De La Rue and Company Limited output for British overseas territories. ... Read more →

Cayman Islands 1974 - Cayman Islands Currency Board 1 Dollar Issued Note (Pick 5d)

This issued one dollar note of the Cayman Islands Currency Board represents a later printing of the design authorized under the Cayman Islands Currency Law of 1974, with the PMG label attributing the production to a not dated 1985 printing. This practice reflects the operational model of currency board systems, where a fixed legal framework and stable design were retained while notes were printed in successive batches to meet circulation demand under changing administrative oversight. The obverse follows a restrained and highly structured layout characteristic of Thomas De La Rue and Company Limited’s work for British overseas territories during the late twentieth century. ...
