5th Anniversary of Independence Commemorative Issue (1996)

In 1996, banknotes were overprinted with the phrase in bronze/gold letters orin silver letters to commemorate the fifth anniversary of gaining "de facto" independence. However, whether these "commemorative" notes were overprinted by the Somaliland authority or by numismatic merchant is unclear.
