| Opmerkingen |
The Syndicat Commercial Bônois was a local merchants' association in Bône — now Annaba — that stepped in to produce emergency fractional notes during the acute coin shortage that gripped French Algeria from 1915 onward. Wartime metal requisitions had stripped small denomination coinage from circulation almost entirely, and the colonial banking infrastructure had no mechanism to fill that gap at the local level. Syndicates, chambers of commerce, and municipal bodies across French North Africa improvised accordingly.
These notes were printed locally, which shows. Production quality is rough by any measure, and surviving examples frequently exhibit uneven ink strike and irregular trimming — not damage, but manufacture.
