East Africa East African Currency Board 20 Shillings = 1 Pound 1.8.1942 Pick 30A PMG Extremely Fine 40 Net. During World War II, British printers were partially unable to meet the currency needs of all of Britain's vast colonies. Hence, Thomas de la Rue printing plates were sent to India where the 1942 line of notes for East Africa were printed. Notice the India Security Press serial numbers on this rare note. Restoration is seen on this seldom offered type. Not to be missed, as this variety is missing from many relevant collections. https://currency.ha.com/itm/world-currency/east-africa-east-african-currency-board-20-shillings-1-pound-181942-pick-30a-pmg-extremely-fine-40-net/a/4029-28256.s?type=CoinArchivesCurrency4029 HID08706262019 © 2020 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
