| Opmerkingen |
The Cassa Veneta dei Prestiti was an Austrian military finance institution established specifically to manage currency circulation in the occupied Veneto following Italy's catastrophic defeat at Caporetto in October 1917. These notes were denominated in Italian lire rather than kronen — a deliberate policy choice to ease acceptance among a hostile civilian population that had no familiarity with Habsburg currency and no reason to trust it.
The arrangement was short-lived. Austria's collapse in November 1918 left the notes in legal limbo, and the Italian government subsequently redeemed them at par, a decision that was far from guaranteed at the time of issue.
