| Opmerkingen |
Namur's municipal small-change notes of 1918 belong to a vast category of Belgian emergency issues produced under German occupation, when coin metal had been systematically requisitioned and ordinary commerce ground down to barter and improvisation. Hundreds of Belgian communes, charities, and businesses printed their own fractional scrip during this period — Namur was simply one of the more organized.
Godenne was a well-established local printer, not a security firm, which is reflected in the notes' vulnerability to casual reproduction. The occupation authorities tolerated these issues as a practical necessity.
