| Opmerkingen |
Uganda's early 1980s were economically catastrophic. Milton Obote had returned to power in 1980 following disputed elections, and inflation was dismantling purchasing power so rapidly that the 20 Shillings denomination — meaningful currency just years before — was becoming functionally marginal even as it was being printed. Thomas De La Rue continued producing the series in London through this period, supplying a government whose monetary situation was deteriorating faster than new stock could enter circulation.
