| Opmerkingen |
Issued by the Ottoman Ministry of Finance rather than the Imperial Ottoman Bank, this note reflects the wartime breakdown of normal currency arrangements. The Imperial Ottoman Bank — a Franco-British joint-stock institution with the monopoly on note issue — was effectively sidelined as an Allied-linked entity once the war began, forcing the Finance Ministry to issue its own paper directly, backed by nothing more than government obligation.
Reichsdruckerei in Berlin produced the series as part of Germany's material support for its Ottoman ally. The high denomination suggests these circulated primarily in large commercial transactions, if they circulated meaningfully at all — wartime inflation made even four-figure notes inadequate within months of issue.
