Nepal Rastra Bank was established in 1956, replacing the older Nepal Bank Limited as the country's central monetary authority — this series, printed by Thomas De La Rue in London, represents the bank's earliest years of issuing its own currency. The "Mohru" designation reflects the transitional nomenclature of the period, with the rupee still referred to by its older Nepali term in official documentation.
De La Rue's involvement was typical for newly independent or reorganizing central banks in this era seeking internationally credible printing standards. The watermark remains the sole mechanical security feature on notes of this type.
