| Comments |
The Bank Broadel Breizh was a Breton regionalist institution that issued the Lur as a local complementary currency during the early 1990s, part of a broader movement in France advocating for economic and cultural autonomy at the regional level. These notes had no legal tender status and circulated — to whatever degree they circulated at all — within networks of sympathetic local businesses and activist groups in Brittany.
The "jaune et bleu" designation distinguishes this chromatic variant within the 10 Lur denomination, suggesting at least two colour versions were issued, possibly for different circulation periods or issuing batches.
