The State Bank of Pakistan has issued a commemorative banknote to mark the 75 years of independence of Pakistan.
The details of the Commemorative banknote are as under:
| Denomination | Color | Size | Issuance |
| Rs. 75 | Emerald Green | 147 mm X 65 mm | September 2022 |
| Obverse | Reverse | ||
| Portraits: Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah Sir Syed Ahmad Khan Allama Muhammad Iqbal Mohtarma Fatima Jinnah | Vignette: Markhor (Capra falconeri) Deodar Tree (Cedrus deodara) | ||
For the Front of the Banknote, the State Bank of Pakistan selected personalities, who were instrumental in elucidating, shaping and supporting the struggle for independence. For this purpose, the portraits of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah, Sir Syed Ahmed Khan, Allama Muhammad Iqbal, Mohtarma Fatima Jinnah were selected to represent the founding fathers’ struggle for independence.
Pakistan is one of the most effected countries from climate change. As such protection of bio-diversity and forest cover are of vital importance, the inclusion of Markhor and Deodar Tree, both of which are national symbols, on the reverse of the banknote highlights the country’s commitment towards combating climate change.
The Colour Scheme, Portraits, Vignettes along with public service message were conceived by the internal Banknote committee at the State Bank of Pakistan and integrated into a final banknote design by the banknote designers at De La Rue, United Kingdom. The design was then approved by the Federal Government on the recommendations of the SBP Board, in accordance with the requirements of the SBP Act 1956.
