| Opmerkingen |
Designed and printed by the American Bank Note Company in New York after the Japanese occupation of the Dutch East Indies had made local production impossible, this note was prepared in exile — the Netherlands Indies Government had no territory to speak of when it was issued. The ABNC contract was part of a broader Allied effort to pre-position occupation currency for eventual liberation, a goal that proved more complicated than anticipated given how long Japanese control held.
Repatriation of Dutch authority after 1945 was immediately contested by the Indonesian independence movement, and many of these notes entered a chaotic monetary environment before being superseded during the transition period. The dual denomination — Gulden on one face, Rupiah on the other — reflects the administrative uncertainty about what the post-war currency unit would actually be called.
