| Opmerkingen |
Bank Polska Kasa Opieki — PKO — was a state-controlled savings institution used by the Polish government as a mechanism for extracting hard currency from its own citizens. These dollar-denominated notes were not foreign exchange in any meaningful sense; they were issued to Poles who received dollar remittances from abroad, forcing conversion into PKO certificates that could only be spent at Pewex hard-currency shops. The system simultaneously captured Western money and denied citizens direct access to it.
Printing in Warsaw rather than abroad was a deliberate political choice — by the late 1950s, the PZPR had no appetite for sending currency contracts to Western printers.
