| Opmerkingen |
The Trésor Colonial issues of 1884 are among the earliest paper money produced specifically for French colonial territories in West Africa. The Trésor Colonial itself was not a bank but a treasury instrument — these notes were essentially government-backed warrants, designed to facilitate transactions where coin was scarce or impractical to transport.
Pick 6 is genuinely rare in any grade. The survival rate for low-denomination colonial treasury notes of this period is poor; they circulated hard in tropical conditions that destroy paper, and few were ever formally preserved.
