| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The Banque de Syrie et du Grand-Liban operated under a French mandate concession, issuing currency for a territory whose borders had been drawn by Paris just years earlier — the "Grand Liban" of the coin's issuing authority created in 1920 by detaching predominantly Christian coastal and mountain regions from the broader Syrian interior, a partition deeply contested from the outset. By 1929, the bank's mandate was already under political strain, and the Syrian franc to which these coins were tied remained linked to the French franc through a period of considerable metropolitan monetary instability.
The .680 silver standard used here falls below the fineness of contemporary French coinage, a deliberate cost-reduction choice for peripheral mandate issues.
