| Opmerkingen |
Palembang was one of several Dutch-era residencies in Sumatra that issued its own emergency currency during the Indonesian National Revolution. These locally printed notes filled a practical void — the new Republic's central supply chain was unreliable, and Palembang's distance from Java made waiting for Jakarta impractical. The residency-level issues were never formally coordinated with the Republic's monetary authorities, which gives them an ambiguous status: neither quite guerrilla currency nor orthodox state money.
Printing was rudimentary by necessity. Expect uneven ink distribution and variable registration — not degradation, but the original character of wartime provincial production.
