| Opmerkingen |
The Banque de l'Indo-Chine was a private concession bank, chartered in Paris in 1875 with the right to issue currency across French colonial territories in Southeast Asia. This note circulates both a denomination in Baht and in Ticals — a deliberate dual-naming to facilitate acceptance across Siam's commercial sphere and the Mekong territories, where French and Siamese economic interests overlapped uneasily in the late 1890s.
Bramtot was a Prix de Rome laureate; his involvement, alongside engraver Charles-Jules Robert, places this note firmly within the Imprimerie nationale's production orbit. Robert's intaglio work for colonial currency of this period is among the finest produced for any issuing authority operating east of Suez.
