| Additional information |
Cyprus issued a dedicated "Boys' Play" pound in 1989 as part of its ongoing commemorative program tied to children's folklore and traditional games — a series designed to document Cypriot cultural practices that were already disappearing from everyday life by the late twentieth century. The subjects were drawn from ethnographic research rather than political occasion, which was unusual for a central bank issue of this period.
KM#64 shares its physical specifications with the broader commemorative pound series struck under the same authorization.
