The P#64 was issued to mark the millennium, part of a commemorative run that replaced the standard 1996 series $10 for a single dated emission. Thomas De La Rue produced the note in London, as they had done for Bahamian currency since independence — a relationship that has held with only minor interruptions since 1974.
The hologram strip was a meaningful upgrade for the denomination, which had previously relied on thread and watermark alone. Counterfeit pressure on Caribbean tens had been a documented concern through the late 1990s.
