When France redenominated its currency in 1960 — converting old francs to new francs at 100:1 — the Caisse Centrale de la France d'Outre-Mer faced the practical problem of a circulating stock of 1000-franc notes that couldn't be immediately replaced. The solution was a rubber-stamped overprint converting face value rather than a new print run, a stopgap that left the underlying 1000-franc plate design completely intact beneath the new denomination.
The overprint was applied at the Banque de France. Examples with weak, off-center, or doubled stamp impressions are not uncommon in this series — an expected byproduct of applying ink stamps to large quantities of already-issued paper.
