Beschrijving voorzijde The German-language face of the underlying Austro-Hungarian Bank 10 Kronen note of 2 January 1915 (Pick A19), printed in teal-green tones with an intricate guilloche underprint. A central vignette presents a portrait of a young boy within an oval frame, flanked by ornamental rosettes. The bold letterpress heading reads ZEHN KRONEN, with the issuing authority text of the Oesterreichisch-Ungarische Bank above; by decree, the CITTÁ DE FIUME handstamp was required to be applied to the Hungarian-language side of the note, as Fiume fell within the Hungarian crown lands — handstamps found on this German face are considered to have been applied informally at a later date.

Opmerkingen

After the dissolution of Austria-Hungary, Fiume's status became the subject of one of the ugliest territorial disputes of the post-WWI settlement. Italy claimed it, Yugoslavia claimed it, and for a brief period in 1919–1920 the city was seized by Gabriele D'Annunzio's irregular forces, who declared the Italian Regency of Carnaro. The Città di Fiume — the municipal government, not D'Annunzio's short-lived state — stamped existing Austro-Hungarian Kronen notes with a "CF" overprint to establish local monetary authority during the interregnum.

Forgeries of the CF overprint exist and are well-documented. The genuine stamp shows consistent ink density and crisp letterform edges; blurred or offset impressions warrant scrutiny before attribution.
