The Caisse Centrale de la France d'Outre-Mer was established by de Gaulle's provisional government in 1944 specifically to issue currency across liberated and overseas French territories — a direct counter to both Vichy-affiliated notes and the Allied Military Currency that Washington had unilaterally prepared for France. This 5 Francs belongs to that first wave of emission, politically charged from inception.
Despite the Bradbury Wilkinson credit, the notes were printed in New York — the firm was operating under wartime displacement arrangements. The distinction matters for provenance and for understanding why certain sheets show minor ink characteristics inconsistent with the company's London production norms.
