Opmerkingen

By the time this note was authorized in 1945, Greece had already survived Nazi occupation, a catastrophic famine that killed an estimated 100,000 people in Athens alone during the winter of 1941–42, and a hyperinflationary collapse so severe that the November 1944 currency reform wiped out eleven zeros — exchanging 50 billion old drachmai for a single new one. This 10,000-drachmai issue belongs to the transitional period immediately after that reform, when the restored Bank of Greece was rebuilding its note stock through ABNC in New York rather than through any domestic facility.

The five-coin device at the bottom was used to distinguish this printing from related issues in the same high-denomination series.
