The 1940 date places this coin squarely in the chaos following France's defeat by Germany, when the Vichy administration inherited control of the French Mandate territories. The Banque de Syrie et du Liban, a private concessionary institution chartered under French authority, continued issuing coinage even as the political legitimacy of its backers collapsed in Europe. Free French forces would wrest Syria and Lebanon from Vichy control the following year in a bloody campaign fought partly against fellow Frenchmen.
Aluminium bronze was adopted for these fractional issues as nickel supplies tightened under wartime conditions.
