| Anmerkungen |
The Post Wissel Kantoor notes were emergency issues produced during the Anglo-Boer War as the Orange Free State's conventional banking infrastructure collapsed under British military pressure. The Postal Exchange Office, normally a remittance facility rather than a note-issuing authority, was pressed into service when more orthodox channels failed. This 10 Shillings piece belongs to a series that was never intended to outlast the war — and largely didn't, given that British annexation of the republic was proclaimed in May 1900.
Survival rates are low. Most were redeemed, repudiated, or simply lost in the disruption that followed the occupation. Those that exist today were typically kept as souvenirs rather than retired through any formal redemption process.
