Gichu owned a leather box which he always kept under lock and key. After her husband's death, Wangui was reluctant to open the box until a fortnight ago when she mustered the courage to do so. Inside, she found East Africa Currency Board notes which were in circulation during the colonial period. All bear a water mark and are signed by four members of the currency board. There are three Sh 100 notes, four Sh 20 notes, and one Sh 10.
All notes have serial numbers.
