| Opmerkingen |
Tripolitania fell to British forces in January 1943, and the Military Authority notes issued under that occupation were part of a broader Allied Military Currency program — the same framework that produced AM lira notes for mainland Italy and Sicily. The Tripolitanian series, however, was a short-lived parallel instrument, used while the territory's monetary future was still undecided.
At the 1000 Lire denomination, genuine circulation was limited. The territory's economy ran largely on lower values, and high-denomination AMC notes across all theaters tended to accumulate in fewer hands — traders, administrators, black market operators.
