Where & when
What's on the note
Front: A Cypriot woman in traditional folk costume with elaborate embroidered dress and jewelry, representing the island's cultural heritage. The design incorporates the coat of arms of Cyprus (featuring a copper-colored dove, Cyprus being historically famous for copper mining) and geometric patterns from traditional Cypriot textiles. The date 1.2.1997 marks this specific issue within the 1997 series.
Back: Traditional Cypriot pottery including decorated ceramic vessels and jugs, displayed alongside lefkaritika (Lefkara lace) patterns and a view of a traditional Cypriot village with characteristic stone architecture. The pottery and lace represent two of Cyprus's most celebrated handicraft traditions, while the village scene evokes the rural heritage of the island.

Background & history
This note belongs to the 1997 issue series of the Cyprus pound, which was the final series issued before Cyprus adopted the euro in 2008. The Cyprus pound had been the island's currency since 1879 under British administration and remained so after independence in 1960. All Cyprus pound banknotes were withdrawn from circulation on January 31, 2008, when Cyprus became the 13th country to adopt the euro. The 1997 series emphasized Cypriot cultural heritage through depictions of traditional costumes, crafts, and village life.
