Juni 1905" below the denomination panel.

Opmerkingen

The Deutsch-Ostafrikanische Bank was established in 1905 specifically to provide a banking and currency infrastructure for German East Africa, and this 5 Rupien note is among the earliest issues it produced. The Rupie was pegged to the Indian Rupee at par, a pragmatic acknowledgment of the region's existing trade relationships with the Indian Ocean commercial world rather than any attempt to impose a purely German monetary framework.

Giesecke & Devrient had been printing security documents since 1852 and were the dominant supplier for German colonial currency. Pick 1 survivors in any condition are genuinely uncommon — the entire colonial series was disrupted by the outbreak of war in 1914, and much of the circulating stock in German East Africa was withdrawn or destroyed during the subsequent British campaign.
