The Caisse Centrale de la France d'Outre-Mer was established in 1944 specifically to handle currency for French overseas territories liberated from Vichy-controlled monetary systems. This note circulated across a remarkably heterogeneous range of territories — French Guiana, Guadeloupe, Martinique, and Réunion all shared the same issue, distinguished only by overprint or local endorsement in some cases.
Hourriez and Chapon were both senior Banque de France engravers, which explains the unusually high production quality for what was essentially colonial small-denomination paper.
