| Vorderseitenbeschreibung | The obverse is set within an elaborate typographic border with repeated guilloche ornaments at the corners and along all four edges, each corner bearing the numeral '250' in a decorative cartouche. The issuer's name 'DE CURAÇAOSCHE BANK' is printed in large bold letterpress across the upper portion, below which the bearer clause 'betaalt aan Toonder' and the denomination 'TWEE HONDERD VIJFTIG GULDEN' appear in progressively larger type. The place and date 'CURAÇAO 1918.' are centred below the denomination, flanked by two manuscript signatures, with serial number 'No.001' printed twice in the upper field. |

| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse is dominated by a large radiating sunburst underprint in light brown tones, with a fine crocodile-skin texture pattern filling the entire field. The large numeral '250' is printed in outline letterpress at the centre, flanked by two small floral rosette vignettes. A block of Dutch text appears above the numeral, with a further line of smaller text below, both relating to the legal conditions and authorisation of the note. |

The Curaçaosche Bank was established in 1828, making it one of the oldest issuing institutions in the Caribbean — but high-denomination notes like this 250 Gulden were never intended for general circulation. Curaçao's economy in 1918 was still largely tied to trade and entrepôt activity, and notes of this value functioned primarily as interbank instruments or large commercial settlements rather than anything passing through ordinary hands.
Pick 7K survivors are rare precisely because so few were issued and fewer still escaped cancellation or destruction. Any example outside an archive collection warrants scrutiny of its cancellation status.
