| Opmerkingen |
Malawi's independence from Britain came on 6 July 1964, and this 10 Shillings note belongs to the first currency series issued by the newly established Reserve Bank — replacing the Rhodesia and Nyasaland pound at par. The transition was administered quickly enough that De La Rue had produced the notes before independence was formally declared.
The shilling denominations were short-lived. Malawi decimalized in 1971, introducing the kwacha and tambala, which rendered the entire shilling series obsolete after less than a decade of issue.
