The Banque de Syrie et du Grand-Liban was established in 1919 under French Mandate authority, replacing the Ottoman-era Imperial Ottoman Bank as the issuing institution for the region.

Deloche's engraving work on this series is technically accomplished; the intaglio depth on surviving examples is notably consistent.
