| Comments |
No bank called "Isla de Malvinas" issued currency in the 1820s, and Pick 102 does not correspond to any such note in the standard catalog. The Falkland Islands had no functioning monetary authority in that period — British administration was contested and intermittent, and Argentine presence on the islands did not produce documented paper currency issues.
The reference data here should be verified against the source catalog before this entry is published. Listing as-is risks cataloging a phantom issue.
