| Opmerkingen |
Burma's post-independence monetary transition was complicated by the fact that the country initially retained much of the currency infrastructure inherited from the British colonial administration. This 1949 Government issue — distinct from the later Union Bank series — was produced by De La Rue in London while Burma's own printing capacity remained essentially nonexistent. The Government of the Union of Burma, rather than a central bank, appears as issuer because the Union Bank of Burma was not yet operational in a capacity that would support note issuance.
Pick 36 is among the earlier notes to carry the independent state's name without British imperial framing. The watermark is the sole security measure — no security thread, no latent image.
