The Gibraltar 2 Shillings of 1914 is one of the earliest emergency currency issues from a British Crown Colony, produced in direct response to the financial disruption that followed the outbreak of the First World War. The British Treasury's Currency and Bank Notes Act of August 1914 triggered a cascade of local emergency measures across British territories, and Gibraltar moved quickly — this Series A note preceded most formal colonial currency legislation.
Extremely few examples are known to survive. The note's low face value meant heavy handling and rapid deterioration in circulation, and no systematic effort was made to preserve remainder stocks.
