Darfur issued its own fractional currency during the Second World War because the remote western Sudan province was effectively cut off from adequate coin and note supply out of Khartoum. This 1 Millieme piece — barely larger than a postage stamp — was an emergency local issue, one of the most obscure wartime currency experiments in the entire African theater. The Anglo-Egyptian Sudan administration tolerated such improvised regional instruments out of necessity, not policy.
The watermark on a note this small is a genuine curiosity: at 34 × 29 mm, there was almost no room to incorporate it without it dominating the entire sheet.
