Opmerkingen

Italy's Treasury Ministry issued small-denomination paper lire directly — bypassing the Banca d'Italia — because coins of equivalent value had effectively disappeared from circulation, hoarded or melted during the monetary turbulence of the 1890s. These notes were a stopgap, and they were treated as such: heavily circulated, rarely saved, and frequently mutilated by the time they left use.

The Carte-Valori printing house in Turin produced the series, but survival rates are poor. Worn, folded, and edge-damaged examples are the norm rather than the exception.
