This is a fantasy note — no such institution as the Bank van Nederlands Oost Indië issued currency in 2016, and the historical predecessor banks ceased operations decades earlier with Indonesian independence. Franck Medina, a French designer known for producing high-quality fantasy and specimen-style notes on polymer substrate, is the likely origin here. These pieces circulate among collectors as art objects rather than monetary instruments, and carry no Pick number or official catalog designation.
