20 Pula

Harrison & Sons had been printing Botswana's notes since the earliest issues following independence in 1966, and by the 1992 series the relationship was well established. The firm's High Wycombe facility — by then operating as part of the De La Rue group following the 1997 merger, though still trading under the Harrison name through this period — produced work of consistently high intaglio quality for Commonwealth central banks.

The 20 Pula denomination sits in the middle of a series that was gradually displacing the founding-era designs. P#13 is the second distinct 20 Pula type, replacing P#9 from the mid-1980s run.
