A seated female allegorical vignette holding a branch appears to the left, with a framed denomination panel at lower left. The text announces the note as a bon pour (token good for) twenty-five centimes, with the printer's imprint of A. Carlisle & Co., S.F. at the base. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | Printed entirely in brown, the reverse is composed of an intricate engine-turned guilloche pattern filling the entire field, with interlocking lathe-work medallions and scalloped borders forming a dense geometric underprint. A central oval cartouche bears the denomination figure "25 cts" in stylised script, flanked on each side by smaller circular panels each displaying the numeral "25". The overall design, characteristic of late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century American security printing, relies solely on the complexity of the mechanical lathe engraving as its anti-counterfeiting measure. |

André Krajewski was a French merchant and financier operating in New Caledonia who issued a series of small-denomination emergency notes — bons de caisse — to address the chronic shortage of fractional currency that plagued the territory in the years immediately following World War One. Private issuing by commercial houses was not unusual in New Caledonia at the time; official small change simply could not keep pace with local demand.
The choice of A. Carlisle & Co. in San Francisco reflects the Pacific commercial axis that connected New Caledonia more practically to California than to metropolitan France for many printing and supply needs.
