De Curaçaosche Bank was established in 1828 as the sole issuing authority for the Netherlands Antilles, and by 1918 it was operating under considerable strain — wartime disruptions to Atlantic shipping had complicated the supply of currency from the Netherlands, making high-denomination notes like this 250 Gulden both logistically difficult to produce and critically necessary for large commercial transactions in Willemstad's busy harbor economy.
Enschedé in Haarlem had printed for De Curaçaosche Bank since the nineteenth century. The 250 Gulden was the highest denomination the bank issued in this period, and surviving examples are rare — the colonial merchant class that used them tended to redeem rather than hoard.
