| Opmerkingen |
By the mid-1970s, Italy's chronic small-change shortage had pushed regional institutions and even municipalities into issuing emergency paper substitutes for coins. The Banco di Sicilia's 100 Lire notes belong to that wave — they circulated as fiduciary mini-notes rather than conventional banknotes, filling a gap the Banca d'Italia wasn't moving quickly enough to address.
SIACA Arti Grafiche in Cento, Ferrara, was a specialist in this low-denomination emergency paper, handling similar commissions for other Italian issuers during the same period. These notes are prone to heavy handling wear given their coin-substitute role.
