Comments

By 1951, Italy had been issuing 100 Lire notes continuously through years of war, occupation, and postwar monetary chaos — the denomination had become almost habitual paper in a country that had seen its currency inflated, frozen, and reformed within a single decade. This note falls under the Allied Military Currency aftermath period, when Banca d'Italia was still reasserting control over a circulation that had been badly distorted by wartime AMlire flooding.

Two distinct signature combinations exist for P#92 — Bolaffi/Cavallaro/Giovinco and Di Cristina/Cavallaro/Parisi — making the pairing of cashier and director a meaningful cataloguing point rather than a footnote.
