The Régie des Chemins de Fer des Territoires Occupés was a Franco-Belgian railway administration established to operate the rail network in the Rhineland during the Allied occupation following the Armistice. It issued its own scrip — not as a banking instrument but as a functional necessity, since the occupied territories lacked a stable currency apparatus and the railways needed to pay wages and settle local accounts. These notes circulated within a tightly bounded administrative zone, not in general commerce.
De Ruaz's engraving work for Dupont on this series is notably crisp for occupation scrip, which was rarely given this level of production care. Vergnot designed across multiple Dupont commissions during this period.
