100 Livres

The Institut d'Emission de Syrie was a short-lived institution, established following Syrian independence from the French Mandate but before the country's own central bank — the Central Bank of Syria — took over currency functions in 1956. This 100 Livres note belongs to that transitional window, when Syria was issuing currency through a dedicated emission body rather than a fully sovereign reserve bank.

Bradbury Wilkinson handled the printing at their New Malden works, as they did for a significant portion of the Arab world's post-colonial note issues during this period. The watermark is the sole security feature — modest by even the standards of the time.
