| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse presents a typeset bon divisionnaire layout on lightly patterned paper, with the issuer's name 'BANQUE ROUENNAISE' in bold letterpress across the upper register and the denomination 'UN FRANC' in large type at centre. A handwritten serial number appears beneath the heading 'DE BONS DIVISIONNAIRES', with signature lines for the Directeur Caissier and an Administrateur accompanied by a legalisation endorsement. A vertical left panel reads 'CAISSE DE REMBOURSEMENT, Rue Jeanne d'Arc, 4', and a blue stamp impression is visible over the central field, with the printer's imprint 'IMP. J. LECERF, ROUEN' at lower left. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse is set entirely in letterpress text, presenting the statutory conditions governing the bon divisionnaire in multiple paragraphs of French legal text. The typography is plain and functional, covering regulations on circulation, redemption at the Banque de France, commission limits, and obligations of the Caisse municipale upon liquidation. A decorative scrollwork border element appears in the lower right corner, and the printer's imprint 'IMP. J. LECERF, ROUEN' is repeated at the foot of the note. |

| Opmerkingen |
The Banque Rouennaise was one of dozens of provincial French commercial banks that issued emergency fractional notes during and immediately after the Franco-Prussian War, when coin virtually vanished from circulation. The Prussian siege of Paris and the economic dislocation that followed drove hoarding hard — even small silver and copper disappeared — forcing regional institutions to paper over the gap with locally printed scrip of questionable legal standing.
Lecerf was a Rouen jobbing printer, not a security press. Notes from this issue are prone to amateur-level printing inconsistencies, and the paper stock was never intended to survive extended handling.
