The Banque de Syrie was established under French mandate authority in 1919, and this 500 Piastres note belongs to the bank's inaugural emission — issued at a moment when the political status of greater Syria was still genuinely contested. Faisal I was governing Damascus with Arab nationalist backing while French and British officials were dividing the region between themselves at the Paris Peace Conference. Notes from this series were circulating into a territory with no settled sovereignty.
Bradbury Wilkinson handled the engraving and printing from their New Malden works. Their involvement was purely a commercial contract — British printers supplying a French-mandated institution.
