Description

This Biafran 1 Pound note is a rare collectible from the Republic of Biafra, an independent state that seceded from Nigeria in 1967. Biafra was established in southeastern Nigeria, largely led by the Igbo community, as a response to cultural, ethnic, and economic conflicts within the nation. The Republic of Biafra took its name from the nearby Bight of Biafra. Biafra’s declaration of independence was a significant event that led to the Nigerian Civil War, also known as the Biafran War, which lasted from May 1967 to January 1970.

This currency is a symbol of the turbulent period in Nigeria’s history, representing Biafra’s struggle for sovereignty. Though Biafra eventually reintegrated into Nigeria, its brief existence left a lasting impact on the country’s identity and history. This 1 Pound note serves as a tangible reminder of that era, making it a valuable addition to any collection of world currency, historical artifacts, or items from defunct nations.
