Greece was in the middle of the Greco-Turkish War when this note circulated, a conflict that would end in catastrophic defeat and the forced population exchange of 1923. The National Bank of Greece had turned to the American Bank Note Company during the First World War years when European printers were unavailable or unreliable, and the relationship continued into this series.
The 1,000 Drachmai denomination was substantial — inflation had not yet reached the ruinous levels it would hit later in the decade, so this note represented real purchasing power during its circulation window.
