| Opmerkingen |
Madagascar's smallest wartime fractional note, issued when the colony faced a severe coin shortage that affected most French territories during WWI. The metropolitan government authorized a range of low-denomination emergency paper issues — bons de caisse — across its colonial holdings when silver and bronze coinage dried up due to wartime metal demands in France.
Turlot's engraving credit is one of the few hard facts linking this issue to a specific craftsman. Whether he worked in Paris or locally is not established in the standard references.
