| Comments |
The ORIDA notes — Oeang Republik Indonesia Daerah — were a direct consequence of the Dutch naval blockade that severed Sumatra from Java during the Indonesian National Revolution. With central Republican currency unable to reach the island reliably, individual provinces were authorized to issue their own regional money. Sumatra's provincial administration printed this series locally in 1948, under genuinely difficult wartime conditions.
The S-prefix Pick numbers for this series reflect their semi-official, regionally circumscribed status. They circulated within Sumatra but were not legal tender across the Republic, and most were withdrawn and destroyed after the transfer of sovereignty in 1949.
