The Banque de l'Indochine's 20 Francs of 1944 was produced in Melbourne under wartime necessity — with Japanese forces occupying Indochina and French printing facilities inaccessible, the Free French and Allied administrations turned to the Commonwealth Bank of Australia's Note Printing Branch to keep currency flowing to liberated or contested territories. Australia printed several Indochina denominations during this period, an arrangement that would have been unthinkable outside the conditions of total war.
The Melbourne origin is sometimes doubted by collectors who assume French colonial notes meant French or Swiss printing. Pick 20 is proof otherwise.
