| Anmerkungen |
In April 1940, German forces occupied Denmark, severing Greenland's administrative and financial ties to Copenhagen almost overnight. The island's Danish-appointed governor, Eske Brun, invoked an 1860s emergency statute and effectively ran Greenland as a self-governing territory for the duration, coordinating with the United States and the Danish legation in Washington rather than the occupied motherland.
The Type II designation refers to the application of an oval control stamp over the original notes — a local validation measure rather than a new printing. The stamp distinguished notes that had passed through official hands from any that might have been in private hoards or otherwise unaccounted for when the administration reasserted control over circulating currency.
SIEG SD#82 places this squarely within the wartime emergency series, the documentation for which remained incomplete for decades due to the deliberate informality of record-keeping under Brun's improvised administration.
