| Opmerkingen |
The Curacaosche Bank's wartime gulden notes were a direct consequence of the German occupation of the Netherlands in May 1940. With the metropole cut off, Curaçao and the other Dutch Caribbean territories had to manage their own monetary affairs independently for the duration — the ABNCo contract in New York was the practical solution to a suddenly severed supply chain.
Two signature combinations appear on 1942-dated notes: Franke paired first with Wouters, then with Kasteel, likely reflecting a change in bank directorship mid-run. The long dating range through 1947 suggests continued use well after liberation, with no immediate rush to return to Netherlands-produced currency.
