Allied Military Currency for France was produced under U.S. Army contract in anticipation of the Normandy landings, with Forbes Lithograph in Boston among several American printers brought into the program. The notes were designed to allow Allied forces to pay local populations and merchants without drawing on the French national money supply — which the Free French government vigorously opposed. De Gaulle considered AMC an instrument of American occupation policy and refused to recognize it as legal tender, creating a genuine political standoff with Washington that lasted into the liberation period itself.
The French AMC series was officially demonetized and withdrawn from circulation by early 1945 at De Gaulle's insistence.
