WESTERN SAMOA. Bank of Western Samoa. 1 Pounds, 1961. P-11a. PMG Choice Very Fine 35. Similar to the multitude of notes issued by the British Empire among its former Colonial possessions in Africa and Oceania, this note dates from the final days of New Zealands authority over Western Samoa. The signature title at left for "High Commissioner" is blacked out while retaining the depiction of a traditional thatched hut that is seen on the previous issue.
