About this banknote
The Reserve Bank of India issued the 5 rupees banknote for Burma in 1938. This series was introduced to facilitate currency circulation within Burma, which was under British colonial rule at the time. The notes were distinct for being issued specifically for use in Burma by the Reserve Bank of India.
The front side of the banknote features a portrait of King George VI in an ornate frame, alongside the denomination and a peacock motif. On the back, the design includes an elephant in a forest scene. This banknote, identified as Pick 4, is primarily red and green in color.
