Anvaing is a small agricultural village in Hainaut, and its sugar refinery — the Sucrerie d'Anvaing — was among hundreds of Belgian industrial and commercial firms that issued emergency small-denomination paper when coin disappeared almost overnight following the German invasion in August 1914. The Belgian government had no apparatus to flood the countryside with fractional currency fast enough, so factories, municipalities, and cooperatives filled the gap themselves.
Leherte-Courtin of Ronse was a regional printer that produced a number of these local emergency issues across Wallonia and the Flemish-Walloon border area. The official stamp is the sole security measure — adequate for a note circulating among refinery workers and local tradespeople who would have recognized it on sight.
