This commemorative issue was released in 1998 to celebrate the 50th Birthday of the Prince of Wales Prince Charles with the banknotes printed with a special cypher of PW50 for this special occasion. The design of the banknote was the same as those circulating £5 notes (P382b) at that time except that it has a special cypher of PW50. This cypher PW50 will not be produced for general circulation. The coin issued together with this note is a five pound crown are in UNC/BU condition. A total sets of 1000 were issued for this commemorative. These kind of numismatic releases were very similar to those issued by Note Printing Australia back in the 90s too.
