But also various artists also designed pakistan banknote illustrations and coins, like Abdur Rehman Chugtai.<br /><br />A.3) Sorry I don't have a clue who designed the tughra, but 1st set of Pakistan coins with tughra was designed by Mr. P.

Later PSPC designed and printed their own banknotes but at they were also based on the previous currency design using geometrical patterns. And this traditional scheme continues till 8th issue.<br /><br />In 9th issue which was released in 2005, PSPC changes the pattern scheme which depicts the patterns taken from our cultural and regional heritage, this includes Islamic patterns used in Mosques etc.Iftikhar Ahmadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12090918547879003335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-445591312265257285.post-69470014681985963632017-09-23T21:57:01.183+05:002017-09-23T21:57:01.183+05:00Thanks sir for you response but my question was no...Thanks sir for you response but my question was not about designs patterns of Thomas Dele Rue, UK but it was about the designs of PSPC, that whether it is using its traditional pattern for designing the currency or the Islamic pattern.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15384977212871329244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-445591312265257285.post-58505302033604977212017-09-23T15:31:58.739+05:002017-09-23T15:31:58.739+05:00Dear Zil-e-Huma

According to your Finance Ministers signature list 1 Rupee notes were issued at least until 2002. But in Pakistan 9th Issue (Current circulating notes) I don't see any 1 rupee notes and in Pakistan 8th Issue last 1 Rupee notes was issued in February 8, 1984. I consider your gallery for Pakistan notes excellent.<br /><br />Also, if Pakistan stopped issuing 1 Rupee notes, when it happened? In Wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finance_Secretary_of_Pakistan I see longer list of Finance Secretaries.<br /><br />Thank you for your valuable info,<br />ValValeriyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05202762652887961575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-445591312265257285.post-20867583603937294012017-05-17T18:31:50.936+05:002017-05-17T18:31:50.936+05:00Hi Valeriy

All other series of notes contains the signatures of Governor of State Bank of Pakistan at their respective times as State Bank of Pakistan has the authority to issue the banknotes, excluding the Rupee 1 notes which were issued by Government of Pakistan, which were signed by the Finance Secretary of their respective times.<br /><br />Hope the answer can solve your query.<br /><br />Regards<br />IftikharIftikhar Ahmadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982459735092601335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-445591312265257285.post-72400375682771284172017-05-17T12:02:10.984+05:002017-05-17T12:02:10.984+05:00Hello Iftikhar,

A lot of different info about notes from Pakistan.<br /><br />I found signature of my note and was able to identify year, i.e. 1960. But looking at page with signatures I have a question. I think you scanned signatures from real notes. So, how can it be that in 1951 was only 1 note, i.e. Krause P-8, but in your page with signatures I found 3 persons for that period:<br /><br />Abdul Qadir - Finance Secretary<br />Zahid Hussain - Governor of State Bank of Pakistan<br />Ghalam Muhammed - Minister of Finance<br /><br />Can you point to some place where I can understand who signed banknotes specifically at which period.<br /><br />Thanks,<br />ValValeriyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05202762652887961575noreply@blogger.com
