Banque de l'Indochine's wartime 1000 Francs presents an unusual production situation: the notes were printed in New York by the American Bank Note Company at a time when metropolitan France was under German occupation and the colonial administration in Indochina was operating under Japanese military supervision. The Free French authorities, working from exile, contracted ABNC to maintain currency supply for territories they hoped to reclaim.
Practical distribution was the real problem. Notes printed in New York had limited means of reaching occupied Indochina, and substantial quantities never entered circulation there at all. Surviving examples in genuinely circulated condition are considerably scarcer than their uncirculated counterparts.
