| Opmerkingen |
Printed under siege conditions in 1916 as the British naval blockade cut off all supply lines from Germany, this note was produced by the colony's own newspaper printing house — the Deutsch-Ostafrikanische Zeitung — because no purpose-built currency printer was available or accessible. The entire Lettow-Vorbeck campaign depended on improvised logistics of exactly this kind, and the currency was no different.
Paper quality varied considerably across the run, sourced locally as stocks permitted. Some examples were printed on salvaged or repurposed stock, which is why the substrate shows noticeable inconsistency within the series.
