Beschrijving keerzijde Within a beaded inner border, the denomination is rendered in large, bold characters occupying the centre of the plain field: the numeral '1' to the left and the abbreviation 'F' to its right, together denoting one franc. The field is otherwise entirely plain, with no additional ornaments or legends, giving the reverse a stark, functional appearance typical of Chamber of Commerce emergency issues.

Aanvullende informatie

French Somaliland's acute coin shortage during and immediately after World War I forced local chambers of commerce across French colonial territories to issue their own emergency token coinage — a practice the metropolitan government tolerated but never formally endorsed. Djibouti's chamber issued this aluminium franc at a moment when shipping disruptions had made the supply of official coinage from France effectively impossible. Aluminium was chosen not for prestige but because it was one of the few metals consistently available in the territory.
