Lille spent most of World War One under German occupation — from October 1914 until liberation in October 1918. Cut off from the national banking system, the municipal government was forced to issue its own emergency fractional and higher-denomination notes to keep local commerce functioning. This 100 Franc piece, printed by L. Danel in the occupied city itself, is a direct product of that administrative isolation.
Printing under occupation carries its own complications: paper supply, ink, and distribution were all subject to German military authority. That L. Danel continued operating and produced municipally-sanctioned currency during this period makes these notes unusual among French emergency issues.
