The Greysheet Catalog (GSID) of the Government of British Guiana series of British Guiana in the World Currency contains 38 distinct entries with CPG® values between $25.00 and $25,300.00.

Private banknotes were introduced in the late 1800s by the British Guiana Bank and the Colonial Bank. The British Guiana Bank issued notes until 1907. The Colonial Bank issued notes until 1917. Following a take-over by Barclays Bank, the former Colonial Bank issued notes between 1926 and 1941.

It wasn’t until 1916 that the Government of British Guiana (GOV) began issuing dollar-denominated banknotes.
