Ghana's first banknote series followed independence in March 1957, but the pound series — including this note — was issued while the country still operated under a pound-based monetary system inherited from the colonial Gold Coast Currency Board. The switch to the cedi didn't come until 1965, meaning these notes circulated alongside a political transformation of unusual speed.
Four signature combinations exist for P#3, reflecting genuine personnel turnover at the Bank of Ghana during its earliest years of operation. The J.E. Jantuah signature appears in two pairings, suggesting he held his position across multiple signing officer changes — a detail worth checking against the specific combination on any given example.
