The Banque de l'Indo-Chine held a monopoly on note issue across French Indochina from 1875, renewed repeatedly by colonial decree against persistent opposition from local trading interests who wanted a state bank instead. This 100-dollar note — the dollar denomination tracking the regional Mexican peso–based currency common across Southeast Asian trade — was printed by the Banque de France's own printing works in Paris, which the BIC used for its high-value issues.
Bramtot was a Prix de Rome sculptor whose commercial graphic work appeared on several French colonial issues of the period; Robert's engraving on this series is among the finer intaglio work produced for colonial paper at the turn of the century. Surviving examples in any collectible grade are genuinely uncommon — the BIC routinely repatriated and destroyed worn high-denomination notes rather than recirculate them.
