Netherlands New Guinea remained under Dutch administration after Indonesian independence in 1949, a source of sustained diplomatic friction that would last until the territory was transferred to UN temporary authority in 1962. This note was issued by the colonial government in its own name — distinct from the Netherlands Bank — as part of a separate currency regime maintained to keep the territory legally and financially detached from the new Indonesian republic.
Enschedé's involvement is unsurprising; the Haarlem firm printed for Dutch colonial administrations across multiple territories. The series had a short effective lifespan: once the New York Agreement was signed in 1962, the currency lost its political footing entirely.
