Old banknotes and monetary evolution

Prior to the adoption of the U.S. dollar, the Turks and Caicos Islands used various currencies. In the 19th century, Spanish and British coins circulated. Later, the Jamaican dollar was introduced and used until 1969. From 1969 to 1973, the territory briefly adopted the British West Indies dollar. An important milestone in the islands' monetary history was the introduction of the first banknotes of their own in 1917, issued by the Commissioner of the Turks and Caicos Islands. These primitive banknotes were gradually replaced by more modern issues until reaching the current series.
