| Comments |
The Bank Broadel Breizh was a Breton regionalist institution, and the 1992 "Lur jaune" notes were issued as a political and cultural statement rather than a functioning currency — part of a broader wave of local and regional scrip projects across France in the early 1990s that tested the legal limits of monetary issuance. These notes never achieved any formal legal tender status and circulated, if at all, only within activist or sympathizer networks.
The watermark is the only conventional security feature, which says something about the intended audience — this was symbolic currency, not a serious attempt at forgery resistance.
