| Opmerkingen |
Greenland's trade note system operated under the Kongelige Grønlandske Handel — the Royal Greenland Trade Department — which maintained a near-total monopoly on commerce in the colony. These small-denomination notes were not currency in any conventional central-bank sense; they were internal scrip, valid only at KGH trading posts and deliberately designed to keep Greenlandic hunters and fishermen locked into the company store economy. Convertibility outside the system was not the point.
At 38 × 23 mm, this is among the smallest paper money ever issued under Danish authority. The physical format was a practical choice: notes changed hands in remote outposts, often in damp conditions, and lower denominations saw rough use.
