About this banknote
The Central Bank of Cyprus issued the 1 pound banknote in 1982. This series was introduced to accommodate the ongoing demand for higher denomination notes and to update security features. It was a part of Cyprus's continuing efforts to modernize its currency system during the early 1980s.
The front side features a mosaic of Ktisis, a symbolic figure from ancient Cyprus. The banknote is predominantly brown in color. The reverse side showcases the Bellapais Abbey, a gothic-style ruin in Cyprus. This note, Pick number 50, is known for its durability and was printed before the nation's later shift to the euro.
