| Aanvullende informatie |
The Banque de Syrie was a French-controlled institution established under the Mandate authority, and these early issues effectively displaced Ottoman-era coinage still circulating in the region following the collapse of the empire. France granted the bank its note-issuing monopoly in 1919, and the subsidiary coinage followed within two years — a deliberate move to anchor the Syrian pound to the French franc at parity.
KM#68 is among the first coins struck specifically for Mandate Syria.
