100 Dracme

The Cassa Mediterranea di Credito per la Grecia was not a bank in any conventional sense — it was an Italian military finance instrument, established by Mussolini's occupation administration following the Axis invasion of April 1941. Notes like this one were issued to pay Italian troops and purchase Greek goods at controlled rates, a mechanism that systematically drained the Greek economy and contributed directly to the catastrophic hyperinflation and famine of 1941–42.

The series was printed at the Istituto Poligrafico in Rome before being shipped to occupied territory — Greek civilians were compelled to accept them at par with the drachma despite having no reserves behind them.
