About this banknote
The Bank of Uganda issued this 10 shilling banknote in 1966. This release was part of the initial series following Uganda’s independence in 1962. The series was launched to establish a national currency distinct from the East African Currency Board issues used previously.
The front side design features the coat of arms of Uganda, with inscriptions denoting the note's denomination. The back side displays an agricultural scene with people harvesting cotton. This note, cataloged as Pick number 2, combines brown and pink hues and was integral in transitioning to a nationalized currency system.
