“Wikipedia says the EAS and pence were replaced in 1966 by the Kenyan shilling and cent, so PENCE would be correct in 1964 when it was created.”
Can you be more specific as to the source? What page at Wiki? TY

This [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coins_of_the_East_African_shilling] seems to derail that. Kenya used cents, right along, as others have also affirmed with images of Kenyan cents from the 50s and 60s.
Fresh Wind pointed out a couple of other options for why the 7s 6d might have been used on a legit Kenyan doc:

“It’s quite possible that British (shillings/pence) currency was used interchangably with the local (shillings/cents) currency.
It’s also possible that there was some confusion in the printing of these forms (they may well have been printed in Mother England).”
Wikipedia isn't an authoritative source on anything. What's the editing history on that page (not that it really matters)?
