| Beschrijving voorzijde | At right, an intaglio-engraved vignette of a classical male head in three-quarter profile, rendered in a sculptural style evoking an ancient Greek bust. The left portion of the note carries the bilingual issuer title in Italian and Greek above a large central guilloche rosette enclosing the numeral "10", flanked by the denomination in Italian (BUONO PER DIECI DRACME) and Greek (ΑΞΙΑ ΔΕΚΑ ΔΡΑΧΜΑΙ). The entire design is printed in red on cream paper, with a fine dotted border frame enclosing the composition. |

The Cassa Mediterranea di Credito per la Grecia was a purpose-built Italian occupation institution, established in 1941 to manage currency in Greece following the Axis invasion. It issued notes denominated in drachmai but backed by nothing — the occupying forces used them to extract Greek goods and labor at will, contributing directly to the hyperinflationary spiral that by 1944 had rendered all such notes worthless. This was deliberate monetary extraction, not banking.
The Istituto Poligrafico e Zecca dello Stato printed the entire series in Rome, which means surviving examples crossed the Adriatic before ever entering circulation in Athens.
