| Opmerkingen |
The Higher Nile Valley Authority for the Rescue of Palestine was one of several pan-Arab civilian fundraising bodies that emerged in 1948 to support the Arab side during the first Arab-Israeli war. These saving bond certificates were not currency — they were subscription instruments, sold to the Egyptian public as a form of financial solidarity, with nominal repayment terms that were almost certainly never honored in any systematic way.
The large format was typical of bond certificates rather than circulating notes, which is worth noting for cataloging purposes — this belongs with war scrip and charitable paper, not standard banknote runs.
