The 1974 Bahamian issue was among the first series produced after independence from Britain in 1973, requiring the Central Bank — itself only established in 1974 — to move quickly on a complete national currency. De La Rue had been printing Bahamian notes under the earlier Currency Board arrangement, so the transition was essentially a change in authorizing institution rather than a change in production chain.
The $20 denomination within this series is notably scarcer in circulation grades than the lower values, consistent with high-denomination hoarding patterns common across Caribbean issues of the period.
