| Opmerkingen |
Fiji's currency at this period was administered through the Currency Board system — a colonial arrangement that meant the island government had no independent monetary policy whatsoever. The Board's composition is visible in the three-signature requirement on every note: a Financial Secretary, a member from the Board, and an auditor-type control signature, all of whom changed over the eight-year run of this type.
Bradbury Wilkinson held most British colonial note contracts through the 1950s and 1960s, and Pick 52 is a straightforward example of that output — competent intaglio work from New Malden. The series was eventually retired when Fiji decimalized in 1969, replacing shilling denominations with cents.
