Ceylon's Government Currency Notes of the 1910s were a direct consequence of the colonial administration's need to replace coin-based small transactions during a period when metal was being redirected toward the First World War effort. The 2 Rupee denomination in this series was introduced to fill a specific gap in everyday commerce — below the larger Treasure chest notes, above the small change that remained in coin.
De La Rue's involvement here was uninterrupted from earlier Ceylon issues, the firm having held the territory's note printing contracts well before the war. Pick 17 is among the scarcer denominations of the wartime government series; surviving examples in any grade above heavily circulated are difficult to source.
