| Opmerkingen |
The Government of Fiji — not a central bank — remained the direct currency authority well into the postwar decades, an arrangement that persisted until the establishment of the Central Monetary Authority in 1973. By 1953, Fiji was still a Crown Colony, and this note circulated under that constitutional arrangement, with sterling as the de facto standard underpinning the local pound.
Bradbury Wilkinson's involvement was long-standing across British colonial currency in the Pacific. The 20 Pounds denomination was the highest in the series and would have seen limited day-to-day use given average wages of the period — surviving circulated examples are genuinely uncommon.
